We cannot say for sure. We know by Renji's Zabimaru that Bankai-able Shinigamis don't need to call the zanpakutou's name to go shikai.
For all we know, Aizen's shikai may have no shape at all, look exactly like his regular zanpakutou among other things.
So, Ichigo MAY be under the hypnosis, he may not.
