What do you mean by path analysis and clicking trends? If you want to use typical graph algorithm such as longest path, shortest path (to detect issues with your navigation page) or page rank then probably yes. Similarly if you do a/b testing to compare if you sell more with different navigation or product proposals.
Really depends your analysis. Only if it looks like a graph does not mean you need to do graph analysis . Then another critical element is how to visualize the results of your graph analysis (does not have to be a graph to visualize, but it could be also a table with if/then rules , eg if product placed at top right then 50% more people buy it). However if you want to do some other analysis such as random forests or Markov chains then graphx alone will not help you much. > On 10.
