Not really, it wouldn't sound very natural.

It would be best not to, because then it would sound a little less natural.

No, don’t omit “if”.
She looks as if she were dying = she is not actually dying; she just LOOKS like she is dying.
She looks as if she’s dying = she is probably *actually dying*
