Yes, but normal C'tis can do that just as well (in fact, with their poison resistance, it works even with non-[undead/vinemen/manikin] troops - you may take some damage, but not too much). The only real advantages of DT are unholy priests (reanimate) and tomb wyrms.
It's nice to be one of the few themes in the game (or is it the ONLY theme in the game?) with both types of priests. But I don't think it's worth 200 points. And designing your god for bless effects on the tomb wyrms is futile - you can't get enough tomb wyrms for it to pay off.
