Yeah, if the story is good enough, having your characters die can work. I'd say more if ... no, even that much would be a bad idea...
But with a good story you can do just about anything, if it seems plausible and works in the story. It would be quite a departure for a classic-style MM game to be like that, but if they want to end it they'd have to... (though MM9? Sure Capcom says otherwise but I definitely think of MM&B as MM9...) But I don't know if it'd really be a good idea, actually. Maybe leaving it up to the imagination, or described somewhat vaguely in an X game, would be better... that kind of story would certainly fit X a lot better.
