While Tarlokk is very coniving and power hungry, his motives are very different from Amon. Tarlokk wanted to Korra to join his task force as a political move. Apparently, the people of Republic City (maybe by nationality) elect the representativse, and as such Tarlokk needs the peoples support. Getting the Avatar on his side is another excellent boon.

And remember, Tarlokk originally opposed the idea of having the Bending Arena open, but changed his mind after Lin said she would take responsibility for the Arena. And when that didn't work...well he goes after Beifong's job.

Meanwhile, Amon wanted a public statement, hence his hapiness with the bending Arena staying open. He's a terrorist, half of his job is causing "terror" and he can't do that without an audience. Meanwhile, Korra's meeting with him was a fluke, because he knew that if he defeated her, "benders from ever nation would rally behind her." And the fight was Korra's idea in the first place, so Tarlokk had no part in that.

And for the last time, Aang can't be Amon because Korra is Aang. So either Korra is Amon or your theory is wrong. Sorry..
