Notes being backed up

My notes were backed by my email and I was not aware that they were not backed by my iCloud. I deleted the email account and now my notes are gone. If I restore my last backup will it restore the email and the notes as well?

iPhone SE, iOS 15

No, you need to re-add that mail account to gain back the notes, it is not part of the backups.
