Perhaps, if we were to look at her actions alone. But the circomstances leads me to believe that it would not have been the right thing to do. First, you can't just ignore the fact that her parents thought she was a cursed child as soon as she was born. That kind of tension, plus the general need for attention that generally comes with being an infant, usually means a chaotic bring up. So it's no surprise that she would be so mischievous as kid. Secondof all, If you read the book you would know about Renfri; Another girl born during the black sun. Because a wizard advised her parents badly, she was mistreated as soon as she did one wrong thing. This eventually led to her wanting retribution agains that wizard. But because Geralt was in her way(he was hired by ther wizard), she  decided to slaugther the entire village with her men. With geralt caught in the middle, he was forced to kill her and all of her men(the lesser evil) .Thus how he got the title of "butcher of Blaviken". So with Geralt being a veteran at this point, it made a lot more sense to save Svyanna instead, even if her plan would have eventually led to the death of both her and her sister.

Besides, why would a higher vampire let himself be enamored by a human when he knows that they would eventually waste away like the inferior and weak beings that they are? You'd think a guy as old and mature as he is would have better judgement, but what do I know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
