Yes, it's not obvious that structural information suffices to reconstruct brain state, but it's not implausible either. We know brains survive periods of reduced activity, and they're stable over longer time periods than you'd expect if a ton of vital non-transient state was stored non-structurally.
I think resuscitation is ~implausible, but reconstruction seems logically feasible, just not with current day technology, nor obviously with high surety.
