By the law of Verona, yes. He had killed someone in a street brawl, which was a capital offence. It is this fact that Benvolio urges in Romeo's defence--that Romeo was only carrying out the law. Looked at more broadly, one might argue that nobody, no matter what they have done, should be killed in an act of private vengeance, and that such a death is wrongful. It is on this basis that the Prince finds Romeo guilty and banishes him. Looked at even more broadly, we might consider that the infliction of the death penalty, even for the crime committed by Tybalt, is excessive and unjustified. And at the same time we might consider that it is a kind of poetic justice that someone as addicted to quarrelling as Tybalt was should die in this manner. He who lives by the sword should die by the sword. And taking the broadest possible view, we might consider that since everyone without exception is certain to die, talking about whether they deserve death is silly. It is their destiny. All we can talk about is whether the time and manner of the death is appropriate, as it surely is for Tybalt. One is reminded of the quotation from The Lord of the Rings: "Deserves [death]! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement."
