I mean, we can. Drop a bunch of humans naked in a forest today and they won’t be able to replicate most of our inventions for centuries.
That’s actually an interesting question. How much does it count, in practice, that we know that something is possible, even if we don’t know the specific details? (And, of course, it would depend on the forest and its climate—how much energy is needed for how long for the mere survival and how much energy and time can be spend on replicating inventions).
