It's technically a possibility, but that doesn't help much. In all fairness, none of the possibilities are particularly good for this plot.
We already know Sagiri's no actor, and the scene of her accepting her current mission wouldn't have required her acting anyways. In that scene and since then Sagiri was obviously depressed about the mission and the related circumstances. Whatever the particulars of the mission, she's genuinely unhappy about it.
So if the mission is a ruse, she isn't in on it. If it's a ruse aimed at either her or Kogarashi, it's an incredibly cruel and callous one on the part of her grandmother to put Sagiri through it. It's also a bad ruse as it has substantial potential for backfire. Kogarashi could refuse to accept that Sagiri wasn't in on it, and hold it against her. That would pointlessly generate friction and animosity between the two at a time when Kogarashi has already rejected Hibari once, but was willing to confide in Sagiri about his lack of experience with love, and allowed Sagiri to sneak into his bed one morning. If grandma managed to get an actual Yoinozaka to help with the ruse, it risks fostering bad blood between them and the Yatahagane. If she has someone impersonating a Yoinozaka, it risks them finding out and them taking it poorly and holding it against the Chuuma. Grandma Ameno wants Kogarashi tied to the clan by marriage so they can assure that he'll be a stabilizing influence between the Tenko and Yoinozaka factions. A ruse like this could easily destroy both those goals. Yes the series could ignore the implicit risks and play the whole thing off with some jokes when the truth comes out, but it'd be kind of bad writing.
Though as I said, it's not like most of the alternatives are much better. As I noted above, as far as the Chuuma should be concerned at the moment, Sagiri's got a great chance at Kogarashi. By the information available to them, she's arguably the second closest girl to Kogarashi(the closest being Yuuna), with Chisaki being the only competition. The only other girls genuinely pursuing Kogarashi are Oboro, Hibari, and Karura. While Kogarashi is content to let them stay around him and attempt to win his affections, he's rejected all of them at least once. So unless they absolutely have to, the Chuuma should not be pulling Sagiri off that mission unless they're more or less willing to admit defeat in securing Kogarashi.
Beyond that, assuming the mission is a marriage proposal, it reflects poorly on Sagiri to not talk it over with friends or other family and accept for the sake of duty when it'll make her unhappy. It reflects poorly on her grandmother to put her in that position.
