Did the Texan colonists do the right thing when they revolted against Mexico?

Yes, but probably for all the wrong reasons. It was not just freedom that was wanted, it was also the freedom to own slaves and to establish the southern plantation lifestyle that they had been forced to leave behind. It was not freedom of religion that they sought, it was freedom from the Catholic religion.

What would happen if Mexico won the Alamo?
It DID win The Alamo. In fact, it became such a massacre (all 189 colonists were killed) that thousands of volunteers from southern states became so enraged that they helped Texas win its independence war against Mexico. If Mexican president Santa Anna hadn't slaughtered all those colonists, opting to have them arrested instead, he would have prevented the massive wave of supporters to the Texan cause, eventually allowing Mexico to reclaim its lost territory.
