yes people have been known to have whats called vasospasms that occur that constrict the blood flow spastically long enough for tissue to die there causing an heart attack...some drugs can also cause this by constricting the vessels too much, like cocaine.

The blockage of which blood vessel causes a heart attack?
It is not really the blood vessel that starts a heart attack. Instead, it is the process of narrowing of the arteries that causes it. The heart has 3 main blood vessels that supply different parts of it. If any of these vessels get completely blocked by a blood clot or fat deposition, it could lead to a heart attack. Even if the branches of these vessels get blocked, it could lead to a heart attack.
