I'm no psychologist but I'm not sure this would actually apply to their situation. Prior to them being capture by Locke, Jaime never seemed to be in any way threatened or traumatised by his situation. In fact despite his restraints it actually seemed as though he felt in control the whole time. The bonding process didn't seem to actually occur until they were both captive. I would personally suggest that their relationship is based more on shared trauma than on a captive/captor dynamic.
