Hard to say in retrospect.
Yes, Nazi support was weaker among Catholics, but the party saw serious growth after 1930 both in Catholic parts of Germany and in Austria (until it was banned there). Irredentism wrt the territories lost in 1918 played a role in both countries. And would Austrians have voted for Hindenburg in 1932? (Bavarians and Saxons did, so probably yes.)
Saving democracy, no. Leading to a more benign dictatorship, perhaps.
