It is statistical possible to count the number of murders (or any other crime for that matter) committed by executed criminals.

This is a joke. But it is possible to check the reverse and not as a joke. How many convicted murderers, killed again after serving the prison sentence?

Prison Inmate Gets Death Sentence In Strangling

An Ohio prisoner convicted of strangling his cellmate will be executed. The prisoner, Timothy Hancock, 33, initially got a life sentence for the November 2000 slaying. However, Warren County prosecutors appealed to demand stiffer punishment, and a new sentencing was ordered. Hancock's death sentence will be automatically appealed to the Ohio Supreme Court, which is required in capital cases. Hancock was convicted two years ago of killing Jason Wagner, 25,of Lancaster. They shared a cell at Warren Correctional Institution near Lebanon. Hancock was serving a life term for a 1990 murder.

This is not a joke! It is statistically possible to count the
number of murders committed by executed criminals.

That number is ZERO! Why would you think that is a joke?
Execute the murderer and he never kills again. If his
conviction was a mistake (not likely in this case) he has
the honor of being exonerated for his posterity.
