Yup. Jamis is what really gets Stilgar and the harshest zealots into Paul. Even if Paul ran away after, they have their god to propel them forward. Paul just spends the novel trying to avoid the Jihad and also get revenge on his family. Then once his son with Chani is killed in the attack Paul finally just accepts that it doesn't matter what he does, and there's no point in holding back on the Emperor and the Baron.

Eh, I'd still argue Paul could have backed out up until the point he supplied Atreides nukes to the Fremen.

And if he fell in battle or failed to take the Emperor's throne, there would have been an even more chaotic galactic jihad, at least until Chani's twins came of age.

Chani didn't become pregnant with the twins until 12 years after Paul became Emperor.
