No. He was aware & SAW what Dent was doing. He didn't pick his name out of a hat. He was already in a position of power to get it done. The people on the ferries weren't until they were thrown into that situation.

Lol. Gordon had a wife & kids at home. He was doing enough already & I'm sure he didn't want or need the extra burden.

That was one of my favorite shots from the trailer & I was somewhat surprised to see it take place in the film where it didn't appear to be a dream. I'll have to rewatch that whole sequence more carefully next time.
