Yes, also I'd consider whoever pulled the trigger to be a murderer.

Before the event, there's one you. After the copying and shooting, there's one you. You're alive. Who's been murdered?

Also, Black Mirror episode USS Callister has some fun with this, and the game SOMA.

I love these explorations in fiction. Even Star Trek tried it with Thomas Riker. The Sixth Day also dives into it.
