this is totally the decision Dean would make if he had known what LeGrange did ahead of time.
Yes, I'm absolutely sure of that - he's a protector, and a bone-deep idealist, and I don't think it would even occur to him to buy his life at the cost of someone else's. He's there to *protect* others; it would go against everything he is on the most basic level.
On top of that, he truly doesn't seem to think his life is worth as much as that of people like Layla. But that wouldn't even play into it.
I even suspect (rather strongly) that he would make the same decision if it were Sam who was dying... but that would definitely be *far* more painful for Dean.
