The bundle id can't be reused as exact. For example com.abc.xxx can be used only once. If you had created this app Id from one account, you can't create the same app Id from the other account. However, you will still be able to create a new one as com.abc.xxx1 like or so. There should be atleast 1 character difference in the app Id's

IF YOU WANT TO DELETE AN APP ID THEN BELOW ARE THE STEPS:

  1. Open developer.apple.com and enter using your credentials.
  2. Click on App IDs.
  3. Now click on the App ID you want to Delete.
  4. Click on Edit at the bottom of the App ID information.
  5. Now here at the bottom of the page you can find Delete button to delete an App ID.
