Unfortunately it is only feasible to restore a deleted account if there is a full account backup (e.g., "cpmove" archive) that exists somewhere, even if it's an older copy of the needed account data. I know this is a difficult situation, but without the data being saved in the form of a backup it is not possible to fully restore a terminated (deleted or removed) cPanel user account.
As a preventative measure for the future, I recommend enabling automatic cPanel account backups using WHM, via root access; cPbackup may be configured via the following menu path:
WHM: Main >> Backup >> Configure Backup
When using locally-stored backups, for better redundancy and reliability it is highly recommended to also use a separate physical drive or separate RAID array of drives dedicated to storing backups; this will help reduce the risk of data loss should should the primary storage hardware experience a failure.
I use a prekillacct script which backs up the account just before it is terminated. That way you can always restore the account if you need to.
We've been using this for about 2 years now, ever since I deleted all of a reseller's accounts one sunday afternoon.
The script is listed here and you can just download and install it:

Sorry, I know this doesn't help at all with your current predicament, but this has made life so much easier for us.
