You can search BDMVic:

I've taken a look and the result is attached. It's interesting his place of death isn't recorded on the index, it usually is I think. Ordering the actual document might provide more information.

Also, you could search for him in TROVE, here's a link of search results for "Robert Barry" filtered to Victoria and 1851. Play around, TROVE is a great resource.

And if you know if Robert's parents were in Victoria, or maybe even young Robert left a will, you can trawl through wills at PROV (Public Records Office Victoria). You can use this site for passenger lists, coroners reports and much more:
