It's hypothermia...depending on how you are dressed, though....and how long you sleep....If you are in Siberia in winter, you probably shouldn't fall asleep outside.

Yes, you will die of exposure if you just fall over and sleep in the elements (snow, wind, cold).

However, snow is also a great insulator (have you ever heard of an igloo?), so an experienced outdoors person stuck in a snowstorm will build a snow shelter and sleep in it. Very warm and cozy.

You would get hypthermia and die. Unless someone found you and warmed you up in time. One of the symptoms of hypothermia is getting sleepy - course gettig sleepy does not mean hypothermia.

You could die. It depends on the circumstances like what you are wearing, how long you are there, what the temperature is, etc.

But if you are asking if it is possible - yes, absolutely.
