Will it grow back? Probably. Most young iguanas will regrow the tail though it may only be black or green and not as long.

Could it kill him? Yes, if it gets infected. I would treat the tail with Benadine. If you are concerned, see a veterinarian.

Is the break clean? Felix broke his tail before we got him and a vet should have cut it evenly. It grew back bent.
