Yes, it's common for the rear bleed nipples to snap. They can be drilled out and retapped, but you need to be careful not to drill off-center or down too far damaging the seat that the nipple seals against.

 

I have a pair of rear calipers with free-moving bleed nipples and sliders if you get stuck - drop me a PM if you're interested.
