The neutrinos? According to the article you'd probably be inside the star to be at the neutrino-lethal distance, so you'll clearly be dead before it even goes supernova. :-)
If it were still lethal at a distance you could survive, my slightly informed guess is that it could matter, as AFAIK supernovas tend to release the neutrinos before most of the light.
However I have no idea for how long the main part of the neutrino flood last or how long it'll take to kill you, could be anything from less than a second to minutes or hours, at which time you'd certainly be dead from the rest of the supernova.
