Is off-healing the general raid role of a paladin?

That depends on how high-end your raid is. Paladins can and do main tank low-end raids such as Plane of Fear or Hate clears, and they do it well. Sometimes (much less often) they'll main or off-tank in mid-range raids like Halls of Testing. At the very high-end, basically North Temple Veeshan and similar content, Paladins are seldom used to tank except for novelty and instead tend to act as secondary healers.
The hybrid tanks fare best in group and low-end raid content. I would not advise those classes to folks who care mainly about high-end stuff. Note that only a fraction of the P1999 player base participates in high-end content, and most seem to have little to no interest in doing so.
