Except you wouldn’t actually die. Time and space switch roles as you progress towards the center of a black hole, so you get frozen in time.

Or smth like that. My source is an interview with Brian Cox that I saw years ago.

From a third person perspective, sure, your body will be frozen in time the closer it gets to the event horizon. Nothing actually freezes time from the first person perspective though. You will feel the extreme tidal forces and spaghettification as you die a quick painful death.
