Yes. Use btape and the label command to write the same label as before 
to the tape.

For btape to work, you have to have the drive umounted from Bacula, so 
you have a sequence like 'bconsole ...' 'umount tapedrive; quit' and 
'btape -c ... tapedrive' 'label' 'whatever-your-tapelabel-was' 'quit'

I've done that too often by now ;-)
