Well, you really wouldn’t be able to remember qualia, but you’d be able to recall brain states that evoke the same qualia as the original events they recorded. In that sense, “to remember” means your brain enters states that are in some way similar to those of the moments of experience (and, in a world where qualia exist, these remembering-brain-states evoke qualia accordingly).
So, although I still agree with other arguments agains epiphenomenalism, I don’t think this one refutes it.
