Yes, but it depends on certain things. True quicksand is water coming up from the ground that saturates the dirt or sand particles making them float in the water. When you step in, you can get stuck. More so if you struggle. With real quicksand, at a point, you start to float so sinking over your head would be pretty hard to do. Now here's what could happen, if the water stops flowing upwards, all of the suspended particles will clamp around the part of your body and make it pretty hard to move. Depending on how deep you are depends on how long it will take you to get out. So if you are up to your knees, getting out will be much easier than say your waist deep. Worst case scenario, you were up to your shoulders when this happened making it difficult if not impossible to breathe.

It drags you under the surface where there is no air and therefore you cannot breathe. You suffocate. Have a nice day :)
How long does it take to sink in quicksand?
You don't sink below the surface of quicksand. You sink down to a certain point depending on the density of the quicksand and get stuck there, unable to get out because you can't get the traction to move. After that, if there is no one there to help you out you die of thirst. Or if you are in coastal areas affected by tide, you drown. Or the crabs start to eat you alive. But whatever happens you don't sink all the way because quicksand is heavier then you are.
