Suppose that we have a synthesized design consists of many short paths and a critical path. Is there a tool that overviews the activation of each paths and path's activation percentage for a given input data pattern ?

Yes and no. STA will look at all possible input combinations and find the worst possible timing. However, if needed, you can fix the values of some inputs within the tool and let it run a partial analysis. If you constrain all inputs, then yes, it would only look at one combination.
