Like Steve B said, I have found both types in the same box. My sample size was roughly 8 3200/5000ct boxes and a dozen or so wax, jumbo and rack boxes as well as a few factory sets (they are all glow versions in the xmas set). This is just what I picked up when they were discovered/gaining traction two years ago or so. Across the board, I saw fewer non-glow backs than glow, estimate about 30-40% non glow.

One of the rarest varieties I have found is a non-glow back with a yellowish cardstock (when under the UV lamp).
I believe the glow backs are related to specific sheet something was printed on....and therefore you may find a mix of glow backs and non-glow backs in the same box. However, you wouldn't find cards from the same sheet with and without glow backs.
