Could a series of strong rapid electromagnetic pulses injure the brain?

Hypothetically, if someone could generate a series of extremely rapid and very strong magnetic pulses for a short period of time, could that injure someone's brain enough to kill them? Would it be an instant death au would that person be able to survive for a few moments enough to say something and then die?

Just a swali that arose during a lunch conversation with my Marafiki and I.
