Yes. It is possible to kill someone with epoxy. As epoxy turns from a liquid to a gel to a solid, if you ingest epoxy and it is activated it will expand and solidify inside your body. As you can imagine, the effects are gruesome and will kill you.

Is dried residue from appliance epoxy paint make pyrex glass toxic?

If the dried paint is on the inside of a pyrex container and you cook something in it, it is possible that some of the paint might leech into the food. The fumes from appliance epoxy paint are highly toxic, and it is doubtful that any paint manufacturer would recommend that dried flakes of the paint be taken internally. There is a good possibilty that a small amount of the paint wouldn't hurt you. However, I would go by what my mother always said: "When in doubt, throw it out!" Or use it for a flower pot.
