Nurgle Warhammer Fantasy Question

Does Nurgle have the power to raise people from the dead in fantasy like he does in 40k? If so, even as zombies, can you provide a source of information to prove this? If not, then I lose my argument. :/

IN the WoC book, in the background story of Festus the leechlord (a special character), Nurgle speaks through some dead people.

Short version of the story, Festus was a doctor trying to cure some plague. He had some victims from the plague in his laboratory and tried to save them, but they all died. He got desperate and cried out for help. Then (quoting the book here) "one by one, the slack-jawed corpses in Festus' laboratory turned their heads to look at him. With one voice [they asked him to sell his soul]." Anyway, the voice was Nurgle's, so he did sort of bring them back to life.

Yep. IIRC his name was Valnir the Reaper. He was in the old Champoins of Chaos book.
