It depends on the situation. Ultimately, it is up to a jury or judges discretion. Especially if the intruder is unarmed. But in a burglary situation, are you really gonna frisk them to find out? You could absolutely be charged.
Listen, if you are really planning on killing someone with a gun when they come in your house, just get some surveillance cameras installed so everything is recorded. Just make sure that they actually threaten you on camera before you murder them. It's literally that simple.
