I haven't read the book, so I'd want to clarify a few things.
Can you die? Like if you got shot or something.
If the first one no, then I would say no, unless there is some other powers attached. What if you got stuck under a rock? Would you just lie there in pain forever? Or when the world ended (in the scientific sence, sun expanding in 5 billion years), would you just drift forever in horrible pain as you can't breath and were just enveloped by the sun.
Maybe you are invulnerable, and can choose to feel no pain. Maybe then it's getting closer to yes, but even then, do you really want to be drifting through space for millions of years?
If it was eternal youth, but you could still die, then I would say yes, and proably not share it, or share it with a select few.
