Answer: no.
Player one: "You lose." Player two: [shoots player one] "No I don't."
The proposition presumes all parties involved adhere to abstract rules and consent to the outcome thereof, whatever the cost. This is known as "rule of law" and "consent of the governed".
The whole point of war is rejection of rules and refusing to consent thereto, or compelling other to submit thereto - both positions carried out on the premise that one's death is an acceptable risk, and killing is an acceptable means to that end.
