No, I don’t believe you do get the VP back. I’m not certain if this has been addressed since the beginning of the year in any of the recent hard forks but my last experience I still required to wait for it to recharge normally.

I recently found out that receiving a delegation recharges your VP instantly which was a correction after HF20.

I think there could be fear of a spam attack, making it so there is no return of VP would stop someone from abusing the vote increasing strain on the witnesses and blockchain size.
