There are three possible death registrations before 1851. The one in 1850 says the age is 1 - which could mean hours, days, weeks, months or a year, but whichever, isn't going to be yours. However, either of the other two registrations in Q1 1845 could fit if the age isn't years, but months weeks hours etc:
MARTIN, JOSEPH aged 3
GRO Reference: 1845 M Quarter in BRIGHTHELMSTON Volume 07 Page 241
MARTIN, JOSEPH aged 11
GRO Reference: 1845 M Quarter in BRIGHTHELMSTON Volume 07 Page 237
