Highly unlikely. Unless they don't enforce it, but rather don't count the points put in that goal.
Then if that were the case, I would expect to be told by the Referees that a goal is not in play, & if I wasn't told that during a match, & put a lot of balls in that one as opposed to the other 2, and thuse, they did not count, I would be more than a little annoyed.

I want to see it be that a Dead robot's goal still counts for game play.

The other teams can still move it out of the way, & that just makes the acquistion of the Super Cells by the team with 2 functioning bots to counteract the 20 moon rocks the other team placed in the dead robot's goal that much more important!
