Yes, the "historical Christ", for whatever that means, was more likely born in spring, anyway. They just set up a celebration of his birth to correspond with the already existing celebration of the return of light around Solstice. (I guess the liked the symbolism, too, as though Christ was the light returning to earth with his birth.)
