I see no downside in discussing your thoughts with your bosses. This is honest and will be perceived as a responsible/accountable thing to do. As an employer, I would much rather re-hire someone that told me they're not going to take advantage of sponsored training than someone who took free training and left. You could frame the conversation around your plans as tentative ("I've been thinking about taking some time off in the spring. It's not finalized yet but if I do, it would be unfair to the company to take the training now").
