The death benefit is not an asset of anybody (yet). And yes, it could
result in an asset in YOUR books. Sorry, but death is no excuse for not
paying taxes so your books may live on a bit until closed by your executor.
As owner of the policy (unless a court rules otherwise*) one of your
rights is to name/specify the beneficiary but that COULD be you, in the
sense of your estate.

as part of a divorce settlement
