Actually, one can even argue that he's died (at least figuratively) three times in the Zero - ZX eras alone.
1. Either literally dies at the end of Zero 4, or abandons the namesake of Zero and becomes Girouette, having the identity of "Zero" figuratively die.
2. If the latter is true, then Giro dies in the events of ZX, thus him dying again.
3. Model Z, or the embodiment of Zero for all intents and purposes in the events of ZX, seemingly sacrifices himself to stop the other Mega Men in the ending of ZX Advent. His fate is unclear (pretty much like the other two points), but in a hidden ending it shows that the Mega Men escaped, so it could either mean that they destroyed Model Z, or he just escaped too.
Zero dies enough times in actual canon to rival DBZ characters, with or without these three theories being true.
Does being cleaved in half near the end of MMX not count?
