i doubt that too. actually, this is/was the best phase, the best time to build up a certain distance to bayern, but even that was not achieved by the clubs you mentioned (bvb, rbl) - so bayern munich is taking a little break from performance and will still be in 1st place again at the end of the season

That's probably how it will be. Especially now that FC Bayern is weakening in the Bundesliga, the other top teams should be hungry and build a points lead. But it's like so often, the other teams are again struggling with their own problems and unsteady performances. It will be hard to win the title like this.
But maybe Bayern will lose a few more times and make it a little easier for Borussia Dortmund and the other competitors. It probably won't work without Bayern's help.

Bayern Munich has lost form badly. Now teams like Dortmund and Union Berlin should take advantage of this opportunity. And keep the top spot in the points table. If Dortmund and Union Berlin are able to continue their performances, it will become more difficult for Bayern Munich to win the title this season. And I would be happy to see a new champions team.
