Yes they could. If you have a lot on you for a while, they will suck you dry. They are blood sucking creatures. Plus, they can carry diseases (I think...). So if you have a leach on you, don't worry. Just stay calm and take it off. To be safe I would see a doctor after that. You can never be to safe!
And just to let you know, leaches are commonly found in swamp waters. So don't freak out about finding a leach on you while taking a walk.
