Hello. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I am so sorry to hear that Piper passed away. Yes, it is possible she had cancer. She could have had a stomach ulcer that perforated. She may have had heart disease that caused her passing. The only way to know for sure what happened would have been to have your vet perform a necropsy (autopsy). Without doing that, all we can do is guess. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. Hope this answered your question.
