Yeah, considering how the Imperium of Man are flat out insane with their military might (seeing how the Imperial Guard, which some fans compared to our modern world armies with far more dangerous instruments of deaths to use, is considered the redshirt army in most material) yet find the Tyranids one hell of a threat...It's kinda difficult to say adding Doomsday in their gene pool would make them anymore dangerous.
Like worlds are just lifeless husks of rock by the time they swarm in, no matter how effective the defenses are. Yet crazy enough, we don't ever really get the full invasion force in action because it's likely the setting just ends if they just full out swarmed the galaxy.
...Unless there's some sort of lore change about them I missed out.
It really depends on how big the main Tyranid force the hive fleets detach off of and advance from really is. Nothing has ever confirmed that one way or another.
Also that characters have managed to hurt the hive mind directly through various nonsense suggests there might be possible ways to still take it on (Yriel and his magic spear having made the hive mind itself scream in pain when he killed the Swarmlord, etc.).
I think you don't really understand what the Tyranids are in the Warhammer 40,000 Universe: they are an evil version of what the Borgs are for the Star Trek Universe, with psychic powers to the level of Dark Phoenix; if not greater.
They don't need the power of resurrection, because thank to their "hive mind" (all the minds of the Tyranids are connected together), when an invasion force of them is defeated, they gather all the necessary informations to create new species of Tyranids, more adapt to the mission than the previous ones.
The Imperial Fleet has enough power to erase the life from entire planets (or destroy the planets themselves if it is necessary) and the Tyranids have the power to face that force.

There is an huge difference among write a good story and try to write a great one.

Batman's world isn't realistic. It's grounded in psychological realism… In real life, Batman's crusade would be a horrible idea.[…] But in the world Batman inhabits, it not only makes sense, it's absolutely the right thing to do.

Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran
