There are plenty of moving dolly shots in movies but to achieve a dolly zoom you must zoom out while pushing forward on a dolly, or conversely zoom in while pulling back on the dolly. These achieve different effects since zooming inherently changes perspective (compressing an image by zooming in…expanding by zooming out) while dollying just changes a camera's position. Deciding on which one is used really depends on the psychological effect one wants to achieve…for instance dollying out and zooming in would make the character feel compressed and closed in.
