Aspect warriors, including Dire Avengers, wear the colors of their cult, rather then those of their world. They can sometimes tie in the craftworld’s colors, but that is not the norm.
Now there is some flex in the assorted aspects. Even within the same shrine, different squads are sometimes colored differently. But they normally work within the same palette. And DA are mostly dark blue. I just took a look at my old 2nd ed codex, and it says that blue-grey is also acceptable, and shows helmets in a variety of colors.
YMMV, you can paint what you think looks cool, I doubt anyone will give you too much flack for it.

The reason I ask is that I would like to paint them teal blue to match the Mymeara color scheme.

If my fuzzy memory serves, in White Dwarfs of yore, there were frequent army pics where the aspects were painted to match the craftworld. Most with some side note about the fact that it wasn’t 100% fluffy, but made for a much more coherent looking army on the table.
Just be sure you can tell which ones are guardians, and which are avengers. That’s the only WYSWYG issue that may arise.
