'Dies' means it goes from the Battlefield to Graveyard. So, before it's ability triggers, it has to be in the Graveyard.

So, he's always a legal choice, otherwise, the it would be worded to specifically avoid you targeting him.

Because Golgari Thug 's ability doesn't say "up to one target creature" it means you have to choose a target for it. If he's the only creature card in your graveyard, you have to choose him as the target for the ability.
