And no, they are probably doing other stuff at the time, be it acting or private business.
The voice actors, sure, they are always available.. The actors themselves, most likely not.

Pretty much this.

Voice actors are easier to get since their profession is closer to the realm of anime, games, toku, etc. unless you are one of those rare breeds that only do documentary narrations and foreign film dubbings or the show left a bad butt mud stain on your career.
Live action actors probably not so much and even if they want to they do not have final say since it all depends on their agency.
If they think it is a nice move for the actor to make in their career, in this case more exposure or growth in honing their skills, they would tell them to go for it.
That is why in Japan they tend to start rookie actors in toku or those live action adaptation of manga or anime to hone their skills.
The only way for Sato to return from the way I see it is most likely if:
1. His career is slow and needs some hype
2. Has enough power to make his own calls and really wants to make it happen

I do find it hard for a reunion mostly because Kohana's actress left show biz so that she can enjoy a regular teenage life and get through regular education, Original Hana's actress had stuff going on at the time which lead to her leaving from what I heard, Kai coming back from the dead is probably hard since Ishiguro is a big time actor as well, Sakurada may not be as big as Sato but seems to have a decent career of his own.
And Sato is slowly dropping the pretty boy act these days from the looks of it and naturally so.
Den-O has been a huge nitrous oxide boost to his career and I am sure his agency thinks that too but his career has grown so much to only care for that show only.
People probably have a better chance at getting a royal straight flush at a card game or catch mewtwo with a safari ball for now.
