Anointing is done before death, not after, so it is not done for suicide or any other death.
Clarification:
Since the soul does not necessarily leave the body at the instant of clinical death, a priest can anoint a person who has just recently died - usually within a few minutes of the death. And yes, this includes suicides. Even if the soul were to have already left the body, no harm is done by the anointing. Most priests will anoint a person if they arrive on the scene within a short time of the passing of the individual.
