Indirectly, yes. In rare cases, constipation can lead to bowel obstruction and then death (if the bowel obstruction is not relieved, either medically or surgically). This occurs more in elderly, infirm patients - hardly ever in the young.
It's possible. You could get septic, then you would get infected and die. Possibly.
