That is correct. iCloud Music Library syncs through the cloud. Having iCloud Music Library active disables manual syncing through iTunes and a locally connected device. You may add additional files to iCloud Music Library by uploading them (if unmatched in the Apple Music catalog): select one or more tracks in iTunes, and choose Add to iCloud Music Library from the contextual menu.
