Yours probably had an internal parasite, or parasites. Was it CB, and healthy when you bought it? Did you pay attention to it, to see it began to get lethargic, or did it begin to refuse food? I would guess some form of internal parasite, maybe even severe URI, or pneumonia.

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

To answer the question, an outwardly healthy reptile can indeed die for no obvious reason, be it environmental or pathological. Reptiles of all types are fairly good for remaining relatively asymptomatic while problems progress.
