You do not mention that you have a file-system level backup from before
the DROP DATABASE. Assuming you do not have one, then no, it is not
possible. You cannot restore WAL to a cluster that is not in the same
state it was in when that WAL was generated.
If you have the fs-level backup (the kind of backup you need to use
pg_start_backup()/pg_stop_backup() to create), as well as all WAL
segments from before the time of that backup until the moment you want
to go back to, then you can do it (but only for the entire cluster, so
you might need to install Postgres somewhere else just for recovery).
Look in the manual under "Point In Time Recovery" (PITR).
