This might be a sensible response to the crisis. It depends on how the cost to bring them back up compares to the cost of building out the matching amount of wind generation capacity. New wind generation is very likely to be a lot cheaper than reconditioning those ramshackle old contraptions. Wind will certainly be much cheaper to operate, and will likely be quicker to start producing useful energy, and to finish. And be, of course, safer, in the long tail.
