Hmm yes maybe, but what would -yam mean? Does Turkic have such a suffix?

Prof. Özkul Çobanoğlu from the Hacettepe University made a new proposal for the etymology of the word Bayram in his article "Türk Eğlence Tarihi Bağlamında Türk Kimliğinin Dışavurumları (The Expression of Turkic Identity in the Context of Turkic Entertainment History)" published in Türk Kimliği - Ayvaz Gökdemir'e Armağan-2, by saying that the word was made by the combination of Turkic Bayïr (Foothill) with the Mongolian word Am (Mouth), meaning "Mouth of the Foothill" where the people watched sportive festivals. Interesting idea indeed.

Dunno its origin. IF you want to go Turkic, it has Turkic origin. On the other hand if you want to go Mongolian, it has Mongolian origin. Bayram-Bayar I easily see the similarities. Bayar is the most widely used word in MM. Bayar - celebration, holiday Bayar Naadam - The biggest celebration in Mongolia, taken place in every administrative units. Bayar- joy, being happy Bayar - name. I bet 30 percent of the Mongolian men have this word as a part of their names. When Turkic and Mongolian share common words or word roots, my opinion, they have the same ancestral language (dil, del, til, hel).

Local dialects of Turkish tend to preserve archaic words that don't exist in the Istanbul dialect anymore.
