In the DMC2 Novel (not based on the DMC2 game), Vergil lead a rebellion against Mundus while he was exiled in some other demonic dimension. So apparently, there are more of them than there were depicted in the games.

Until capcom decides to clarify what happened we won't know.

That just means he goes to another hell.He died in that one.
Even if he did die that shouldn't stop from him coming back to life. DMC is more supernatural than science fiction so the boundaries of life and death should be more fluid.
So if you wanted to use him again just bring him back.
