We know there were AT LEAST six Mexicans who fought on the American side at the Alamo, most likely because they had a real good idea of what sort of $#*+hole rule Santa Ana would bring. There were probably more because some of them took Anglicized names . . . plus a significant number of Texans who had Mexican wives.

Mexicans weren't the problem, it was the $#*+hole values of their ruling class.

And, yes, every defender of the Alamo was a hero because they purchased, with their blood, the time necessary to rally their fellow Texicans to the cause and deliver the knockout blow to Santa Ana's army at San Jacinto just 46 days days later.

And several other Mexican states had revolted against Santa Ana’s dictatorship, not just Texas.
