Maggots are produced by flies, not by dead bodies. Whether maggots would appear will depend on whether flies land on the body. If the room is merely concealed (i.e. hidden) there's nothing to stop flies getting in. If you mean a sealed, airtight room then maggots would not appear.

Are maggots in your body then when you die do they hatch and become flies?

No. When an animal dies, flies are attracted to the body, lay eggs that hatch into larvae, and those larvae pupate into flies - just like caterpillars into butterflies, really, just instead of a butterfly laying her eggs on a plant, flies lay theirs on dead flesh.
