You don't have to say that you support it. If it was forced into a single question, any competent attorney would phrase the question to be something like "If someone was found guilty of the crime of would you be willing to consider the death penalty as a potential punishment?"
You'll have a rough time convincing the court that striking people who refuse to even consider using the death penalty is unconstitutional. And if an attorney DID have a court that wouldn't disqualify those jurors for cause, the prosecutor could disqualify them anyway using their peremptory challenges.
