I'm sure Lelouch had decided on this path before they even left the World of C. I think that's why lelouch was so uncertain when he discovered Nunnally was still alive. He knew he was going to die, but Nunnally's presence made him hesitate because he knew of their obvious mutual attachment. However, I'm glad that he kept on his "mask" until the very end.
Anyway, I have additional reasoning that supports Lelouch being dead. If Lelouch was really immortal, and suddenly got up and left the scene, I think people would notice that his corpse was gone. I mean, really. They aren't stupid after all. Not to mention I imagine that Nunnally was clutching him for a long time afterwards... she seems to be very perceptive, and given how she can tell if people are lying by holding their hand, I'm sure she would be able to tell if Lelouch were really dead or not. Her grief was about as real as it can get. Additionally, I'm sure they disposed of his body properly, like burning/cremating it. I don't think they would build a shrine to him and place his body in there intact.

Uh yeah, bit slow Insanity, this was pointed out a awhile ago I think, not really elaborated on but just generally something I thought people already had in mind
Anyway, that does your reasoning no good, of course he wouldn't get up after that, but they don't really show what happened to the body afterward and depending on how long Lelouch can keep the act up in terms of portraying or keeping his death which is still unknown given how little we know of Codes and Geass in general then you throw in all kind of factors. And burning/cremating his body won't do you any good, C.C's been there and come back from that if you recall her memories of the various tortures she was put through
