Not if we look at death as the end of memory. But the question then becomes, how long does memory last?

I have been paranoid of people being buried in the ground and 'dead' only to have electrical impulses from their dead brain spark to life for short time frames. That is, our conscious brain may still, for a limitation amount of time, experience sensations while it is fully dying. It does not take much lack of oxygen for cell death to happen, but not all cells die immediately.
