In short, nope, it is already dead.

The long version:

We really need better science to give an accurate answer.

Some hard questions should be clarified:

1) Whether there is a soul?
2) Whether the soul requires the functioning of its associating brain to sense?
3) Whether signals could get stuck in the soul?

Scientifically, there is no observation of souls -- not yet, but there are clear problems with quantum physics regarding observations at and below the scale of Higgs boson. Nothing could be completely ruled out however improbable it seems.

I tend to think of the soul as a core dump of the computer memory -- a record on paper or any physical media other than the computer memory. So the real question is whether a soul remains a soul when it leaves the body or could it be scanned / recorded out side of the body at all?

Although something is happening at that level, scientists are just not sure of how exactly to confirm the events. It is not possible to rely on any scientific explanations not yet established. Also scientists have not come up with a mathematical equivalent of a soul. Biologists are barely decoding the DNA sequences -- the amino acid instructions. They are observing the signals passing in and out of cell membrane. There is still a long way to get to a soul.

I'll take it that your question implies brain dead when all brain functions stop. At the current state of science and observations, the body is no longer a person and therefore could not hear anything. But this answer is very limiting in scope.

Opinions vary about whether dead people somehow live on as spirits. I have no idea whether a spirit could see and hear the world as living people do.

But the brain is another matter. Deprived of all oxygen for around five to ten minutes at normal body temperature, and it ceases to function. That means it can't hear, see, think, feel, or do anything anymore.

You also asked why people cry and weep when someone dies. I think that's hard-wired into our species. We are innately social creatures. So we get lonely when there are too few people in our lives; we miss our loved ones when the leave us; and we miss them terribly when we die.

dead people still havent moved in with me yet,., are they going to die or are people dead already?.,
whats the diffrnece between dead and your idea of dead that makes you think it is the only thing you dont know about

brain activity stops minutes after the heart stops. so someone could have brain activity and could possibly hear after their heart has stopped and is dead. but well never know, will we.
People cry not to "reach the mind of the dead" but because of the loss in their lives. they will miss them. therefore they cry.

if a tree falls in the forest, does anybody hear it?

It is their expression of grief at his loss. Being near him brings an undeniable finality. You see the shell of the person you loved and know it is empty. That is the horror.
