Your intuition is absolutely correct. In a shear it is possible to have an increase in Airspeed when encountering outflow on the nose, then a neutral zone, followed by a tailwind that can in fact drop your Airspeed low enough to cause a Stall. Same is true for the opponents of crosswind. Proximity to the ground does not create or eliminate the known behaviour of aerodynamics, subject to some well understood concepts like Ground effect. Wind Shear was unknown when I started flying, as were microbursts.
