Mathematically, we can construct abstract structures with multiple dimensions (manifolds). String theory says there are actually 11 physical dimensions at quantum level and multiverse is an implication of the said theory.

Perhaps you meant universes and not dimensions. The answer is: possibly, but we don't know. There is something called the "Many-Worlds interpretation" that tries to make sense of Quantum Mechanics. It basically states that every possible outcome is actualized. If true, that would mean there is a universe that exists somewhere, where you are a billionaire and banging Kim Kardashian. It also means that there exists a very real universe out there, where you are also suffer the most gruesome death imaginable.
