I have seen them re-use gaskets many times without any issues.
Can it be done, yes absolutely. But it's not something I would do on my own bikes or any bike I work on....

It's cheep insurance to use a new one!
Don't reuse it.

Now those metal base gaskets you can reuse. Apply a light coat of copper seal and stick it back in. Of course, that's the even cheaper one.
If this ever comes up again, I'd bet I have a new OEM head gasket for that bike laying around and I'm at least in the same state. Probably have a pile of timing chains too. Same goes for the 2004-2008 style CRF450s.
I wouldn't do it.
Hang that shit on the wall and tell the ladies that gasket blew after you took the top of the box in 2009.
