not necessarily
GRRM said they killed characters that will be important in the future. whether or not they will die in the books anyway is anyone's guess. the concern is that d&d decide to kill important characters because they are bad writers, and GRRM is somehow forced to do that aswell because of the show. so far every statement by both show and book people says that one will not necessarily dictate the other, though stories do converge
