Well...yes. Now: if a person acted in such a way that they DIED - and KNEW that they would die - in acting to save another person, then that is not suicide. But --if the person killed himself or herself-- then that is suicide. *** Too fine a line? Consider. the following example: Will and Jill's house is broken into by Bill the burglar. They hear something and turn on the lights. Bill has a pistol. Bill points the gun at Jill and says to Will, "If you kill yourself, I'll let Jill go. If you don't, I'll kill her." *** Option A (suicide) - Will kills himself (by whatever means are handy). Option B (not suicide) - Will leaps in front of Jill, protecting her with his own body, and is killed when Bill fires at Jill.

Yes it would still be suicide, which is to take your own life.
