yes they are all correct.
it sounds better to say “she was about to die of boredom back there” and “she was about to die from fear back there”
- Polish
then some of sentences would sound better with "of" and some would sound better with "from" to a native speaker and it all depends on the noun after "die", doesnt it ?
