My barks occasionally at night. I'm sure he hears something - because I notice he never barks until the TV is turned off. This makes me think that the TV covers up any outdoor noises that he hears later on.
You might try having a radio on at night - so he won't hear everything else.
Personally - I don't think you can stop a Yorkie from barking if he thinks he hears something outside - another dog, animal, strange sound, or something.
I do know if I pick mine up and distract him - he stops barking - but you can't do that all night....
Good luck!
