Yes and no.
I mean you can't really recreate a "memory". Even if you had a holodeck or even could travel back in time.....it just would not be the same.
And you can't, of course, "reset your brain to an earlier restore point". Everyday of your life you are a "new" you...that is the sum of your life to that point, plus what you are doing now. You now, are not the you of any point in your past.
BUT, can you "Go Back" and play an old game to get a very similar, but new and different, feeling: YES.
It does help if your in the same mind set of the time, and if you have radically changed your views over the years you might be unwilling or unable to "go back".
I run a LOT of Old RPGs. And it's very common with older gamers that they don't want to give up the "new ways". Oddly, they will change their mind 100% for each new editions rules, but won't ever want to go back. When 6E comes out with a new rule twist....the "medium rest that gives a character +100 hit points" lots of gamers will stand firm on that new rule must always be used to play D&D. But tell them "no short or long rests" like in 2E and they won't want to play that game, will want to add in 5E house rules or simply won't have fun.
And it is possible...for some people...to not "like" something in the old rules, but they can still accept it. Though this seems to be a bit rare.
Though there are people like myself that still play with a LOT of 2E style and even some ported in rules....an unfair game, an unbalanced game, character death, lots of magical downsides and so on even when we play a game by the 5E rules. And, if you already play by most of the style, then there is little to go back to....other then the rules.
And a lot of people do get 'stuck' in a style...and it's not really about "edition", though it does stick to them. A lot of players of 5E are slow and steady, as they think or feel that is how they should play the game. And they will resist any change. However, put them in a 2E game....and maybe by the second hour they will embrace a radical new game play style....Having their character Leaping off a cliff to attack a dragon in mid air while screaming "have at thee foul dragon!". The same player who a week ago in a 5E game was saying "um, ok, my character attacks one of the kobolds, um, I guess".
Though, I have found getting new players....not only people who have never played 5E....but more so have never played any RPG can work out wonderfully.
