No. The bank didn't put you in the position of needing money. Even if you where their employee and they fired you, your needing money (or technically the things you can buy for money, if someone just gave them to you for free you wouldn't need money) is not a condition created by the bank, but rather one that would have been temporarily ameliorated by the bank paying you. If the bank outright stole from you, then you would have a moral right to steal the money back, but normally not a legal right, with the law expecting you to rely on lawsuits and/or prosecution and legal confiscation.
