Yes, in fact two years ago or last year the last speaker of Bo died, making it a dead/extinct language. There are several Native American (USA) and First Peoples (Canada) languages that currently have only a few elderly speakers left, and will likely become dead languages soon. It is predicted by some linguists (not all) that Gaelic will become extinct in the next century or so, as it is still spoken by relatively few people in Ireland, and most of those in small, rural areas.
