Would this setup work: Console + DAC/amp + Y splitter + headphones and 3.5mm jack to jack auxiliary cable to Blue Yeti?

I'm looking for a desktop microphone I can use with consoles while my headphones are connected to my DAC and amp (Astro MixAmp, Schiit Magni and Modi). I'm interested in Blue Yeti, but I don't want to connect my headphones to my controller or to the mic, so I'm wondering if this setup works on PS3, PS4 and Xbox One.

No. The 3.5mm jack on the Blue Yeti is not an input, it is a headphone output so that you can also use it as a DAC+amp. Also, your microphone would need to be connected to a mic input or USB, not to a headphone output.
 
Do a search for "blue yeti with consoles," it looks like it might be possible but you should probably look onto it further because I saw a thread where people had trouble using both the Mixamp and Yeti at once.
