No. Not in any imaginable way. It is a good idea to have security alarms at a nuclear reactor site.

Would the radiation from a nuclear reactor be fatal?

The radiation from a properly functioning nuclear power reactor is heavily shielded and cannot be approached close enough to be fatal. Radiation from damaged or malfunctioning nuclear power plants can be, and has been, fatal. The nuclear reactor incident at Chernobyl is one example. Nuclear reactor failures aboard ships and submarines also prove fatal but are often hidden behind national security; submarine K-19 'the widowmaker' was one such example. And of course, if one were to get into the reactor room past all of the shielding, any reactor would be fatal.

What is a Nuclear reactor moisture separator?

This is used in the nuclear reactor that is known as Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) in which heat produced by the nuclear fission in the nuclear fuel allows the light water reactor coolant to boil. Then, the nuclear reactor moisture separator is used to increase the dryness of the produced steam before it goes to the reactor steam turbines.
