Interesting theory. I wouldn't think so after he won her over in chp 122, but who knows? She might have some influence there. Come to think of it, what if he tricked her as well with the "end the world" bluff, and then when she realizes he tricked her, she goes back to Zeke. But this all ties into a theory I have that's a discussion for another time lol There are possibilities, Eren Yeager did said in chapter 122 that Ymir did led him all the way. It is possible that Ymir has been sending hidden messages to Eren, but isn't controlling him all this time. And Eren Yeager did offer her a choice to either end the nightmare or allow it go on. I wouldn't take the "led me here" bit too literally. Eren was talking about how Ymir was waiting 2,000 years for somebody to free her, and that someone turned out to be Eren. Ymir also is the embodiment of paths, which connects all eldians and titan shifters. She was trapped there, and Eren may had been figurative about it being fate that he would free her from paths.

But that's my take on it, and I could turn out wrong in the future. In fact, the theory I alluded to before includes another paths chapter that clears up the remaining mysteries from chp 121, like how Grisha understood Eren's memories and then transferred his powers, and may even offer another scene with Ymir. Maybe she is more involved than I think.
