I would perform a fuel delivery system test. Check fuel pressure, volume and quality. if not delivery, check power and ground to pump.

It's possible. But can't be sure if it is actually your issue. You'll need to test it.

You can check fuel pressure, volume and quality with a quality scan tool. Testing things will always help you diagnose an issue before placing parts. It's not uncommon for your fuel pump to be working fine one day and then the next completely fail. Pumps here if needed: Mini Cooper & Cooper S (R50/R52/R53) - Fuel Pumps
