False. The complete bipartite graph K2009,2010​ is 2009-connected. Deleting fewer than 2009 vertices leaves at least one vertex in each part and therefore a connected complete bipartite graph; deleting the smaller part disconnects the larger independent set. But its two parts have unequal sizes, so a matching cannot cover them both. Equivalently it has an odd number of vertices. Thus it has no perfect matching.
