[ATLA] I just watched the episode where Mama whatshername was a fortune teller and said the volcano wouldn’t go off, she was wrong. In the village was a couple earth benders who dug a trench to redirect the lava flow. Could an experienced earth bender redirect the flow themselves?

Point of order: She said the village wouldn't be destroyed by the volcano, not that the volcano wouldn't erupt.

Getting to the actual question however: Maybe-- ~~magma~~lavabending is a thing-- but very few Earthbenders would have the strength to singlehandedly hold back an entire volcanic eruption themselves.
