Anything that is erased from the Time Capsule drive is deleted immediately.

Unless you powered off the drive seconds after the deletion occurred, and you are willing to void the warranty on the Time Capsule by pulling the hard drive from the device and installing it in a separate enclosure or caddy, connecting directly to your Mac and then trying special software like FileSalvage to try to retrieve the files.....they are lost.
