No. A fully depreciated asset cannot be revalued because of accounting's cost principle, matching principle, and going concern assumption

As per para29 of Internation Accounting Statandard16

"An entity shall choose either the cost model in paragraph30 or the revaluation model in paragraph31 as its accounting policy and shall apply that policy to an entire class of property, plant and equipment.

 

As per para34 "The frequency of revaluations depends upon the changes in fair values of the items of property, plant and equipment being revalued. When the fair value of a revalued asset differs materially from its carrying amount, a further revaluation is required. Some items of property, plant and equipment experience significant and volatile changes in fair value, thus necessitating annual revaluation. Such frequent revaluations are unnecessary for items of property, plant and equipment with only insignificant changes in fair value. Instead, it may be necessary to revalue the item only every three or five years.

 

This means that if the compnay has policy of recording fixed assets at cost than it first has to change its policy for revaluation purpose, which will require the disclosure as per guidlines of relevant standards of IFRS's.

 

Hope you understand.
