Perhaps not die, but they will certainly pine for it. Ferrets are a social character if they have been brought up with others then they come to expect the company.
No, it's not unhealthy to keep a ferret where you sleep, in fact, my ferret sleeps with me in my bed as he is free roam in the bedroom and never caged.
They sleep for around 8-11 hours.

My ferrets died in their sleep.
It depends on the personality of your ferret. If you have a hyperactive ferret, or your ferret does not sit still much, then most likely, no. But if your ferret is calm, like mine, than it can fall asleep if it is tired.
Ferrets are a burrowing animal and prefer to sleep in dark places. A food bag mimics a nest or burrow. Avoid allowing your ferret to sleep in plastic bags, as these are a breathing hazard
Not until the sleep of death... Heart cells are different than those of other muscles in part to ensure it doesn't need rest
Some ferrets do snore when they sleep. If your ferret snores it may be worth mentioning it to your vet to check there is nothing dangerous causing your ferret to snore.
If your ferret is very sick, and is not able to perform regular activities, Yes, because he will not recover from Aleutian disease and there is no need for your ferret to suffer and be in pain. I'm so sorry your ferret is sick.
Your heart beats slowly when you sleep.
no your heart don't make you sleep
On average ferrets sleep 16-20 hours per day. They are a crepuscular animal which means they are most active during dawn and dusk. Ferrets sometimes enter what is called a "dead sleep" where the ferret is in such a deep sleep that he or she appears dead and cannot be woken. This is completely normal ferret behaviour and nothing to worry about .
