If your account is not already deleted and the process is still in order, you can cancel your request:


While your request is being processed, you can contact Apple Support with the unique alphanumeric access code you received to cancel your deletion request.


If the Apple ID is allready been deleted, there is no way to restore it. Deletion of an Apple ID is permanent

This is what Apple says about doing that:


From: How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support

"What happens if I change my mind after I have requested that my account be deleted?

While your request is being processed, you can contact Apple Support [using this link --> Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support ] with the unique alphanumeric access code you received, and we’ll help you cancel your request. After your account is deleted, Apple can't cancel the request, reopen your account, or restore your data."
