Hi and Welcome to FlyTrapCare forums!
If I understand the question correctly,
Yes, older leaves do die away and tall leaves die during dormancy.
Dead leaves are useless, the "bulb" is not.
I'm not sure why you are calling a bulb because it just mostly looks like a white thing.
This is it's rhizome. It is used for the plant to store energy and to propagate.
But how can you see it? Have you uprooted it or are all the leaves dead and the plant is not potted deeply?
Some pictures might help.
Good luck!
