'Dead' is a very fluid boundary. More so than usual, in this case.
They was a voyager episode too.
There is no morality or immorality in it, she is responsible for her crew, tuvix wasn't crew but the other two were.
You didn't murder anything, we have several examples of transporter patterns living out their lives in holodeck simulations.
A better analogy would probably be, if an alien used the body of a cryogenically frozen person that we KNEW could be revived with 100% certainty.
Tuvix wasn't some alien body snatcher who possessed the bodies of the deceased. He was literally Tuvok and Neelix living on in a new form, which comprised a third entity.
In killing Tuvix, Janeway also murdered both Neelix and Tuvok.
What she did, in essence, was to murder three people to bring back two.
