The (NF) rule reads, "...if it has no substitutes to replace disqualified or injured players..."
If a coach says a player is no longer available, he or she is no longer a "substitute(s) to replace" another player. A sustitute is not defined in rule 4, and there is no provision I'm aware of that requires someone listed on the scorebook to play or return to the game, even if they have already played.

NFHS case book play 3.1.1. If a player is "available", you gotta put him/her in.
