I'm assuming they have backups.
Technically they can do this. There are well known backups outside of reddit, so from a tech perspective, even if Reddit lack its own backups, it could easily utilise a different public backup.
However, it's been pointed out in other threads that there are numerous legal barriers to them doing so.
