No, they were just tall enough to not be buried.

Gen. Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 15:34, January 20, 2018 (UTC) My point exactly if men are tall enough to not be buried they should not be affected by any suffocation. And if Beornings are taller we should be able to pass through completely unharmed since it would probably only reach their knees. And knee deep snow is no where near as bad as waist high snow. Trust me, I know, I've walked through both.

That won't help at all in a blizzard. The snow would be blinding and the cold would kill regardless. The fact of the matter is that it should be a death sentence for any non-Orc to venture off a pass in the Misties (and a likelihood of death for orcs, too.)
