That is a possibility, but I don't think it is cleared over whether or not Galadrial knew that a Balrog resided in Moria. The Balrog probably stayed as Morgoth was gone and no one was around to control him (or her). Fear of the Valar drove it away from the War of Wrath and I doubt that kind of fear would go away quickly.
