I would imagine the person pressing charges would have to demonstrate harm (emotionally/financially) to the person being libeled for it to be actionable. I would think it impossible to financially or emotionally harm the nonliving. So, no.
Although I understand libel laws in the UK are somewhat easier to prosecute under than those in the US, so they're may be some wiggle room there if the person has an estate that still exists which financially benefits someone (royalties from copyrighted works for example).
