Yeah, that's true but it doesn't mean that he wasn't using her to point out what he thought was wrong with his contemporaries. I mean, he is rumored to have said "Madame Bovary, c'est moi" (literally, "Madame Bovary is me"), meaning that he acknowledges that he identifies with some traits - if he isn't talking about the book itself but the scholars never agree on that point -, but that doesn't mean that those traits are necessarily positive ones, hence the irony.

However, Flaubert also said in his correspondence that Madame Bovary is "une oeuvre surtout de critique" (literally "above all a critical work")meant to symbolize the failure of the bourgeois values.
