Are "plants" and "animals" inevitable on an alien planet?

Is it simply inevitable that on a planet organisms would split into motile and non-motile groups. I'm planning on creating slime-like amoebic chemotrophs for my light devoid-planet that are the "plant" equivalent to earth. Is it improbable that none of these creatures become tree-like in nature and remain somewhat motile?
