Could Shen Long of Earth revive Kid Trunks?

Since technically he and future Trunks were the same person, would Shen Long not be able to revive him on a technicality?

There is no reason why not, Goku wouldn't have been able to otherwise. heck anyone who has died died earlier in the future.

I wish I could ask this in more detail, but...huh? I don't get what you're saying.

Well, they died in the future, though. Future Trunks died while in the past. But yeah, I think it's safe to assume Shenron would make a distinction between them, since they're from different times.

He's saying everyone in Future Trunk's time line died by the Androids hands. They couldn't have been revived if those were Shenlong's rules.

No one in Trunks' future was revived, though. And even if they were, that would be by a different Shenlong to the one that revived Future Trunks in the present. That said, I do think Shenlong would differentiate between the two versions of Trunks.

You just said it yourself, the two Shenlongs are different as are the two Trunks.

...But Future Trunks was revived by the same Shenlong that would be reviving Young Trunks, which is the whole point of the topic. Thus your comment about Goku dying in the future didn't make any sense to me.
