Absolutely. I've seen it happen.
Which is why some insulation in the loft ceiling could be an option.
My parents loft once suffered such a fate, as they had some insulation in the ceiling, with hard board holding it up. Unfortunately, there was an area of just over 1 square foot with no insulation in the loft ceiling, and a pipe crossed it. On very cold weekend when they were away, and the heating was off...... You can imagine what happened.
