Was Valkorion a result of Revan's influence?

The whole Zakuul idea, the "beyong dark and light", and the "more peaceful method to rule the galaxy", could it be Revan's influence? Just like Revan back being Darth Revan in SoR. They affected each other with their ideas.

How are we supposed to know when the story isn't done yet?

It's possible, while Valkorion would never admit it I feel he had great respect for Revan (Revan being the ONLY person in the entire Old Republic time period that was even close to him in power.) We'll have to wait and see though.
