I don't think it matters. If anything, I think that would make him more likely to kill her.
Jon's all about doing what needs to be done, even if he has to sacrifice something to do it. If it was his own life that needed to be sacrificed, that'd probably just make the decision easier for him. He wouldn't have to feel selfish or guilty about his actions, he'd know he was taking her life for the right reasons.
I don't think Jon Snow would want to feel like there's a dangerous child-murdering zealot at large in Westeros just because he's afraid that killing her would kill him - when he's already been given a second chance at life in the first place. It just seems totally out of character for me.
For that matter, even if he didn't want to kill her, wouldn't locking her up make way more sense? She can't harm anyone else, and potentially she can be used by Jon again in the future.
Lets be real though: the only reason he let her go is so Arya can get the more fan servicey kill on her next season. And I'm sorry, but that's just weak.
