Well, of course. But usually (at least in slaughter houses) they cut the animal when it's alive to take out the guts. It's dead when it's cut up.
Even with hunting, it's hard to imagine what the animals go through. Hunters don't always hit the head or heart so the animal goes through alot of pain and is still alive when it's cut open.
