Based on your description I would say that is likely. Like I mentioned up top, start by checking the fluid. Incorrect fluid level (too much or too little) can cause some strange behaviors. Burnt smelling/looking fluid is an indicator that the transmission severely overheated, typically to the point of failure.

The one good thing is that automatic transmissions for Yaris with low miles are readily available at junk yards for well under $1000.
