That is not what the rule says. Per OP the ball is sitting in live territory near first base side fence when dead ball was ruled. The rule states that runners cannot advance during a dead ball unless there is a reason to advance them (catch and carry, home run, ball thrown out of play, etc). 12.12.6.4 provides that reason and puts it in the umpire's judgement as to what base(s) to award after play is suspended due to serious injury. If in their judgement 1B is all the runner would have attained then that is it.
Again, working with the book I have available to me, but OP hasn't stated what level of ball or rule set this is.
