Yes  it is  haram  because  it  is  like   objecting  what ALLAH has  given  you  . most  probably  hard tests .

Many  people say thiswhen they face  bad  moments  in  their point  of view  
.Instead of wishing  death  I think  it is  better to wish  long  life  not  for  making  wealth but  making  HASANAT ( GOOD DEEDS) and under this sense  it  is  haram also for  stopping  yourself  from a  further  good  work  on  earth   to wish  death  .
But any way,  this  is   said  most   often  under  bad mood  not  realy  serious  wish  and  INSHALLAH  it  is  forgiveable

I found this on a Website...

Hadrat Abu Hurairah(R.A.) reports that Rasulullah(Sallallaahu alaiyhi wassallam) said, 'No person from amongst you should wish for death. If he is a good-doer, perhaps he might increase his good deeds (if he lives longer). And if he is an evil-doer, he might repent (to Allah and thereby earn His forgiveness and pleasure).' (Sahih Bukhari)


Hadrat Anas(R.A.) relates that Rasulullah(Sallallaahu alaiyhi wassallam) said, 'None of you should pray and hope for death because of some calamity. If he has to do so, then he should make the following dua instead: O Allah, keep me alive as long as life is better for me, and let me die when death is better for me.' (Sahih Bukhari)

Hope these help. ;-)
