For the hyperdimensional beings, time is a physical, spatial dimension, and was being displayed as such within the tesseract. Cooper himself didn't travel back "in time", but was able to view all points within the time dimension concurrently.
My bad. So do we know that THAT happens when we go into a black hole? In reality?

No. In reality, every subatomic particle in Cooper's body would have likely dispersed omnidirectionally at the speed of light as soon as he crossed the event horizon.

With respect to the plot, Gargantua wasn't a typical black hole, as it was modified by the hyperdimensional beings to allow Cooper to experience their five dimensional reality within a three dimensional structure.
