Can you die from a kidney hole?
I don't know exactly what you mean by a kidney "hole", but the closest thing to that which might occur naturally is a cyst, which is like a hole with a membrane filled with fluid. These are common and do not cause death or diease unless the kidney is full of them, such as in polycystic kidney disease. A hole in the kidney caused by a gunshot or stabbing could cause death from bleeding.

The cells lining the proximal tubules of the nephrons have a highly folded cell membrane on the lumen side of the tubule made of microvilli. This is referred to as a brush border and is important in increasing the surface area for reabsorption of components of the filtrate as it passes down the nephron.

What Membrane always simple squamous epithelium?
This is a cell layer of epithelial tissue which is composed of cells which are wider than they are tall. The 'simple' means its one cell layer thick and the 'squamous' means the cells are wider than they are tall. Examples of areas where this type of cell layer include the outer surface of most body organs, the vascular system and the bowmans capsule in the kidney.
