No. You wouldn't be able to live. Actually, there was a scientist who tested a man in prison. After his head was chopped off, he said the prisinor's name(after it was chopped off). When he said it, the prisinor's eyes looked up at him. Then it closed. He said it again, and the eyes looked up again. Then they closed again. This happened one more time. After the third try, he said it again. This time the prisinor did not look up. He was finally dead.
