Probably, but I don't know if it's worth it.

Depends. Do you enjoy your teeth? I wouldn't re-use bars or stem, just because both are cheap and also keep your face intact. Not worth the risk.

Sorry about your LHT. I pulled a similar bonehead move last year, but got lucky. I took worse damage than the bike.

...upon reading the above sentence, I might need to re-evaluate my priorities.
