I agree with your thresholds, as TLI ≥ 0.90 and SRMR ≤ 0.08 are commonly accepted (Kline, 2016). Your interpretation is reasonable—SRMR is acceptable, while TLI is slightly low. I think a model that “almost” fits can still be acceptable if it is theoretically strong and other indices are good. However, it would still be better to consider some modifications to improve the fit.
