So can The Archangel. The Archangel is most commonly written as being every dead thing in existence, able to manifest as any one it so chooses (it's just most frequently written with the gas mask because that's become rather iconic, but that is still just a topping and not the core idea).

But okay, to answer the question directly, yes. The Dying Man could be like the Grim Reaper. That is a fair way of putting it.
