Yes, they'd evacuate the civilians so they wouldn't have to support them. I think the Russians would go to extreme lengths to retain Crimea and at costs anybody else would consider unreasonable.
Russia will never evacuate civilians. They are far too valuable a resource for Putin who will put them in line for Ukrainian strikes, so that he can parade their inevitable deaths as horrible war crimes from Ukraine.
Russian lives are worth about 1/1000th of a Ukrainian life, and this isn't me saying it. It's Putin displaying this every single day.
