Argumentation is debate or discussion. (And argumention isn't a word.) I don't see how a person could agree either with or to debate or discussion.
You can agree with a person. You can agree with a statement or with an opinion. You can agree (consent) to do something.
So the choice depends on what is meant (in the given context) by argumentation. Is it simply a state

Thanx, that's a lot of options here. But I should've clarified argumentation. The scenario is like this:

A did something which B did not agree. So C suggested A do something else in order to persuade B, using a new procedure/method, thus an argumentation. So C is asking A that whether A would agree to the argumentation or not.

Would this make any sense?

You use :
agree with a person, an opinion or a policy : I entirely agree with you.
agree about a subject of discussion : We agree about most things.
agree on a matter of discussion : Let's try to agree on a date.
agree to a suggestion : I'll agree to your suggestion if you lower the price.
