Can Revenant be killed while casting his Mesmer Skin?

Yes. Revenant can be killed during the casting animation, before Mesmer Skin stacks have been applied. This is assuming he doesn't have Mesmer Skin active already from a previous cast, doesn't have any protective abilities applied to him from his team, and he cannot use shield gate for some reason which would otherwise provide enough time to cast Mesmer Skin even under enemy attack.

So if Revenant has stacks active he won't be able to die when casting Mesmer skin?

Technically yes, the cast removes old mesmer charges before applying new ones but your shield gate will prevent most damage. Theoretical threats are toxin damage, the vampiric liminus enemies or a no-shield modifier.
