Yes. It happened to mine when it died. :( Anyway, this usually happens hours after the rabbit has died because this is when the body of it starts to decompose internally. Since there in no blood flow and no organs are working, a gas forms inside of the body. This is why it's best to bury the rabbit quickly before it decomposes. I don't really think you want to see your little friend as a skeleton...
