Evolution doesn’t (and can’t) "retrace its steps". So, almost certainly this would be impossible. It would be like two different rainstorms producing exactly the same raindrops falling in exactly the same places with identical lightening and thunderclaps. Waaaay too many variables for the exact thing to happen twice. Similar (ref convergent evolution), yeah, but not identical.
