Just because we now call it yule (or Christmas in English speaking countries) doesn’t mean it’s no longer about the solstice/winter season like it was for thousands of years. Christ gets near zero attention for Christmas in my country. I’ve NEVER seen a nativity scene IRL.
Christ is just a later addition to a much older tradition for a lot of people. Not even an important one. Of course that’s for us atheists and pagans, not Christians.

It's the name that's important, though. The origin of the name Christmas is from Christianity. For the whovillians to celebrate Christmas, Christianity has to exist in their universe.
