I'd say yes, because if you have Magery 6 and death spells in your game, you clearly want bodies stacked up high and wide. But I just wanted to make sure of the authorial intent here.
Magic does say that spells with die or level limits inherent to the spell use that limit or your Magery, whichever is higher. Thus, you would need Magery 9 to raise the limits on those die-based death spells. Do note, however, that they all ignore DR, and disallow survival rolls entirely.
