Potentially yes--even if a criminal makes good on his or her criminal act (e.g. voluntarily pays restitution), they can still be prosecuted for having committed the crime in the first place.However, it's not a crime every time a check  bounces; it is only a crime if there was an intention to pass a bad check. If the check bounced due to a simple mistake (e.g. not balancing a checkbook properly) or events beyond the person's control (e.g. a paycheck was late), that's not a crime. To be a crime, there must have been criminal intent.
