This is what I did when taking images for Gold Slime/Gallery so I can confirm this works. In fact I went into detail about their fleeing mechanic being disabled for the duration they're on it on that page.

Do be warned though that when they get agitated they can break free, so it's not permanent, and if you wanted to pop Gordos for Gold Plorts, you're better off bursting a Gordo in the Grotto while surrounded by food, and throwing food at it when it bursts. The slimes come into contact with the food and automatically produce plorts. Make sure you're at a distance when you do it, so they don't notice you and don't despawn, might be the key to maximising Gold Plorts drops.
