Yes, it is possible. It happens mainly when the root canals are not cleaned properly rather debridement of the infected pulp tissue is not done properly. If pulp tissue is left behind it forms nidus for the microorganisms to form abscess.

Yes, you should have an abscessed tooth either removed (or a root canal) done. It depends on what the dentist says. First, the dentist will put you on antibiotics to be sure the abscess is cleared up and then do the procedure. Most dentists prefer to save your teeth if at all possible so discuss the root canal as an option.
A dentist, specifically yours, would probably suggest removal of the tooth - especially if the abscess has come back.
Sometimes an infection in a tooth becomes abscessed. At that point, it becomes necessary either to pull the tooth or to clean out the root and fill it. A root canal means the dentist cleans out the root of the tooth. He or she drills out the nerves and blood supply to the tooth. The tooth may have one, two, three, or four roots. Each root is cleaned out, filled, and then a regular filling is placed in the rest of the tooth.
No . . . the root canal procedure is intended to save the tooth.
Options include extraction and root canal treatment, however antibiotics are sometimes necessary as it is often verry dificult to extract/root treat acutely abscessed teeth. Dr Nicholas Manning BDS Glasg MFDS (RCSEng)
It is unlikely that you will die from an infected tooth. If it abscesses, you may wish you were dead. Having said that, yes it is extremely remotely possible that you could die from an untreated infected tooth.
that is a root canal of a molar tooth. Meaning the dentist is removing the nerve and pulp of the tooth.
An abscessed tooth can be treated with a root canal and a crown, or with an apicoectomy (if the root canal has failed) or with an extraction. Only your dentist can tell you which option is best for your individual situation.
Is replacing bonded tooth with a crown necessary to prevent root canal?
