If the sentence above refers to the Bf 109 E-7 4176 reportedly damaged in the accident on 11 February 1941, with the damage assessment being 60%, than it is not the same aircraft as the one lost on 30 March 1942.

This is because the 60% damage is a write off, so that particular aircraft never flew again. Except in pieces, that is.
