Yes, this is fairly common phenomenon. Hypoglycemia leads to peripheral vasodilation and profuse sweating. This can lead to perverse and central cooling further depressing the oldies intrinsic temperature. Also, central hypoglycemia leads to depletion of ATP and glycogen readily available to allow mechanisms for shivering which leads to heat production. I hope this helps to understand this better.
