As a rule-of-thumb, a gasket shouldn't be re-used once it has been compressed. Gaskets are cheap - get new ones.
If your used gaskets are in good shape (no cracks/separations/wrinkles/&c), you
may be able to use them again. If you re-use the gaskets, I suggest putting some high-temp RTV (or other sealant) on both sides of the gasket to seal invisible cracks. Gaskets are cheap - get new ones.
