Yes. for other traveling direction it is the same: when thre is only one H component it is called TE. For tightly confined modes, one H component is the largest among the three. As mentioned previosuly, for hybrid modes people also simplfy them to be TE TM. In such case you can check the fundamental modes for which tangential intensity is continuous with peak at the mode center. For TE/TM system it has only two, how to call them is really up to you and your definition.
