[the alarming man]

if enough time I guess it can...that's if it will restart......very sad

You can actually see both engines just start to come back to life right at the end of the trace. No.1 has oil pressure again and its' gas turbine section is accelerating. No. 2 is coming off idle and its' prop pitch is unfeathering. Too late.

Awful to think it might have crashed with at least one, if not two, serviceable engines.

Initial info from the flight recorder doesn't paint a happy picture.

When the wrong engine is shut down can it be re started or not 

With enough altitude and airspeed theoretically yes, but as anyone who remebers Kegworth will testify, shutting the wrong engine down at low altitude/speed only ends one way
