Never heard of this at all.

To be clear though, why wouldn't a biju feel the agony of death? It can't be pleasant for them. We know that Bee and Gyuki shared their pain, so if a jinchuriki suffers an agonizing death, the Biju would feel it to. So they try to keep their Jinchuriki alive to avoid the pain of death. The reconstitution process likely also leaves them weak (Why would a reconstituting Biju instantly reappear?) and that would likely put them in a very bad situation.
