No, that's just a myth. The most sneezing ever does is make your heart skip a beat.

Answer:

There an ancient tradition that in the earliest times people would sometimes sneeze just before dying. Sneezing thus became a feared phenomenon. This came to an end thanks to prayers which God accepted; but it hasn't been forgotten and is the source of the worldwide tradition of blessing someone when they sneeze.

English - "Bless you" or "God bless you"
German - "Gesundheit"
Greeks - "Banish the Omen"
Hindu - "Live" and responds "With you"
Zulu - "I am now blessed"

Hebrew - "To health"

Can you die if you sneeze?

The Birmingham Health System states, "If you try to suppress a sneeze, you can rupture blood vessel in your head or neck and die. If you keep your eyes open by force (while you sneeze), they will pop out. Suppressing a sneeze can be harmful, particularly to your ears." I learned that if you hold in a sneeze while pinching your nose, while it relieves the pain in your ears, "it briefly blocks the blood flow to your heart". Yes, you can die from sneezing if you hold it in.
