He can always die. I don't think him dying would actually change that much. The issue is more about him being unseated by a rival political faction than him not being the candidate. If he were to die and a last testimony, real or fabricated, were to materialize pointing to Harris (or any other centrist) as Biden's appointed "successor," then the gravy train will continue to truck along since Biden's personal network can save political face and just coalesce around the successor. Being unseated by a rival faction is politically humiliating and means Biden's personal network being replaced by the rival candidate's own personal network, but an 81 year old man with dementia passing away is an act of God.
