I don’t believe so. As I understand it, all Premium money goes into a big bucket. Then, views/watchtime/etc. are used to calculate what percentage of the pie a given creator will receive.
I was under the impression that YT Premium paid creators the same per view as YT with ads. Is this not the case?

Yeah, so if you watch one creator a lot then they get a lot more

Some creators have said that the cut they get from premium viewers is higher than that of ad based (SpiffingBrit for example, in his YouTube download exploit).
If that still holds true is unknown.

Linus (LTT) also said that one premium view was worth significantly more than ad based.
