Well... If circumstances allowed for Suguha to also have been trapped, it's likely she would have been with Kirito from the beginning. I would think so atleast.

She probably wouldn't die either, seeing as she was already fairly trained in kendo, giving her a head start on everyone else in SAO, in terms of sword skill.

Though, Asuna is likely to have died, if Kirito hadn't decided to enter the dungeon when he did. A lot of his decisions were made due to being a solo player, and with Suguha, it's not likely he'd just be a solo-player. Kirito for instance, may not have participated in the first few boss battles, and as such, he'd likely stay behind in the starting town to raise his and Leafa's levels... Or he might do what he did the first time, and advance to the next town, but this time he likely wouldn't offer Klien to come with, and if he did, Lyfa would insist on bringing Klien's guild with.

But her dieing? Probably not.
