No... It's not normal... What you should look for is a way to create less travel in your front shock. I'm no MTB expert, but don't most shocks come with a dial or knob to adjust compression and rebound? It sounds like the primary function for your MTB is on-road use with some light trails. There's no reason you would need more front travel than you already have for your stated usage.
