I take "killed" to mean the state for any sentient creature in Arda whose physical form is separated from the
fea.
In terms of Ainu, that should only apply when the forms are 'real', such as the Istari, who were ensconced in actual bodies which they could not at will discard, and Sauron, who had built himself a form that was tied to the world.
