Unfortunately yes. It depends how old the cat is or if there are complications, but it's not as common as you would think. Kittens that are not healthy will often die (that's mother nature working.)

SECOND OPINION: Wait. The question was: "Can cats die after birth?" The more accurate is Yes, they ALL do die, once they run out of all nine of their lives."

1 minute yes, up to 3 monthes kittens can die with no apparent reason. Although, deaths can be prevented by giving the mama kitty a healthy nutritional diet while pregnant, thus containing dry and canned food. *cheap brands might not give cats their full nutrients. You also want to make sure the cat is rid of fleas. Fleas can infest the litter causing anemia and a slow and painful death. * the only way to de-flea a pregnant cat and/or her kittens is a bath in warm water with Dawn dishsoap followed by a flea comb. repeat as needed as fleas can re-appear. Towel dry and keep warm!

Answer:

No less than 8 weeks, but ideally kittens should be kept with their mother and littermates until 12-14 weeks.

Is is possible for a female cat to mate then conceive then be spayed and then give birth to her kittens?

No, it is not possible for a spayed cat to have kittens. The spaying procedure removes the cat's entire reproductive system, which includes any unborn kittens if any are present. If the cat is far into her pregnancy, it may be safer (unless a vet says otherwise) to let the kittens be born and then spay the mother as soon as the kittens are weaned. A cat early in pregnancy can be spayed safely.
