Interesting the word Paul used for Enoch is the same as removed, carried, deserted, etc. but not the same as Changed to what happens to our bodies.

I think that Enoch was definitely carried away but I would not say he was resurrected at that time since the Bible clearly states Christ was the first to rise from the dead.

So if Enoch had not risen from the dead had he died before Christ or was he still alive?

The Bible definitely makes it seem like he had died. Maybe not a normal death but still passing from living to death.

Gen 5:23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
 Quoting: Achduke7


Beyond the realms of death

Gen 5:5 
And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died

Gen 5:8 
And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died

Gen 5:11 
And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years: and he died

Gen 5:14 

And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years: and he died

Gen 5:17 
And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred ninety and five years: and he died

Gen 5:20 
And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died

Gen 5:23 
And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: 

Gen 5:24 
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. 

Gen 5:27 
And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died

Gen 5:31 
And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died

"That Enoch was raptured or translated to heaven is clear when compared with the dismal refrain “and he died” that accompanies the legacy of the other patriarchs mentioned in Genesis 5."

H-brews 11:5
By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death; and he was not found because God took him up; for he obtained the witness that before his being taken up he was pleasing to God.
