Wrongful Death - Accidental Death Law Answers
Yes you can, but note that the statute of limitations for product liability cases is, generally, 1 year from the date of injury. An exception exists for cases involving the exposure to or ingestion of a harmful substance over time, as you've indicated here, in which case a plaintiff may commence litigation for one year following the date the injury was or should have been discovered.
