No, because the judgment was vacated. They didn't grant a judgment of acquittal. So the government is still free to bring the case again.
Still, the prosecution is really unlikely to do so.

If they did, and he was convicted again, would his time served on the vacated conviction be discounted off any sentence? It would seem highly unjust if not.
