No they are in inflated fish bags, the bags are usually put into thermal boxes and are padded with bubble-wrap.They should also be sent next-day-delivery,which add enormously to the cost.

If the fish are packaged properly and sent quickly as Scriven mentioned, they will be fine, a little stressed from the journey but generally okay.
However there have been incidents where people selling fish haven't packaged sufficiently and in some cases yes, the fish have died.
