Certainly; maybe an analogy is in order: The passing of terminally sick elderly is sometimes eased along with a little more morphine than strictly necessary. Nobody bats an eye in these cases, we even never know for certain.
SIDS is a diagnostic category that expressly permits the sudden unexplained death of an infant not to be subjected to further investigation. you understand there is no way to differentiate from “stopped breathing” and “was smothered” in the absence of bruising/ other injury
