If the kitten has runny stool or diarrhea for any length of time, then yes, the kitten could in fact die.

If the kitten is weaned, try feeding it some cooked plain chicken or white fish until the kitten's stools have firmed up. These are very bland foods that are very gentle on an upset stomach. It is highly advisable to get some liquid into your kitten (kitten milk, water with a little broth in or mix water with the food), and to take your cat to the vet.
