You're probably right seeing McConnell will be in charge. He may allow some ad-hoc secret votes to see where the Repubs are, but those votes will be unofficial and informal. When it comes down to the serious vote that goes on the record, I'm sure it will be public. Mitch will see to it.
The only exception to this is if there's an overwhelming informal vote for impeachment. I'm sure there won't be one of them.
I fully expect the final vote will follow party lines with no more than a small handful of line-jumpers from both parties crossing over to vote against their party. Those who do will most likely be the ones who are planning on leaving the Senate after their term is up.
