Even business team accounts can't be recovered once they're deleted.
A team member can be recovered by the team admin if the account was removed in the last seven days, and that's only because the account isn't actually deleted. It's removed from the team and inaccessible, but it doesn't actually get deleted until seven days later. Once that seven days has passed, not even Dropbox can recover the account.
