could Robert have attainted House Greyjoy for the rebellion, and put a non-revanchist in charge?

He could have, but: 1. there’s no guarantee that the non-revanchist’s sons wouldn’t be revanchists, and 2. the legitimacy of their rule would be in question, potentially leading to continued disorder and rebellion.
