That's mostly how it works in the Forgotten Realms, which is the setting where gods have died the most. Of course, even after being killed an their killer taking up their mantle, it's not necessarily always permanent.

Find your own truth, choose your enemies carefully, and never deal with a dragon.
"Canon" is what's factual to D&D lore. "Cannon" is what you're going to be shot with if you keep getting the word wrong.
Depends on the circumstances but if you could it would be really hard.For example,let’s use Asgorath. Okay chopped in half,REINCARNATES as two separate halves,Bahamut and Tiamat.So,yeah,near if not fully impossible.
here we go. the gods don't have a statblock, because as soon as they do, they become just another monster. you have to build a machine or collect ingredients for a spell every time you want to kill a god. BUT because gods are omnicient, they know what you're doing and will send followers, kindred monsters, and maybe avatars after said player.

D&D gods aren't omniscient.
