Yes, that's what I did - as long as you don't affect the OSD data/partitions, they should come up again just fine once you reinstall ceph. I expect once the mandatory switch to ceph-volume finally happens this process might get a little more complicated but for jewel you're still using ceph-disk so it's just using udev rules to identify the OSDs and it will bring them up at start.
