Well of course, but the question concerns the re-discovery of the concept of tongues (and the other gifts) by a few churches a couple of centuries ago.
The big issue is whether that was a genuine 're-gifting' by the Holy Spirit of the same tongues we read about in the Bible...or just an idea that a few people came up with. In church history, that was an era in which there were a lot of people thinking that there should be a renewal of something or other that the New Testament made mention of but which had long since ceased to be a normal part of church life.
It could be a sign from God.

1 Corinthians 14:22
22*Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy, however, is not for unbelievers but for believers.*
23*So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and inquirers or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?*
24*But if an unbeliever or an inquirer comes in while everyone is prophesying, they are convicted of sin and are brought under judgment by all,*
25*as the secrets of their hearts are laid bare. So they will fall down and worship God, exclaiming, “God is really among you!”

I'd say that as long as we are here and there are non believers in our midst that this is still valid today.
