Yes, the Prime Minister can be reelected as an MP any number of times, even if they are no longer prime minister following their reelection.

If you mean 'reelected as Prime Minister', the Prime Minister is not directly elected to begin with.

However, the term of a Prime Minister is indefinite, and a Prime Minister can be reappointed by the Governor General any number of times. The only limitation on a Prime Minister's term is that he/she must maintain the confidence of the House of Commons, and can be forced to resign through political pressure (or be dismissed by the Governor General, though this is rare) at any time.

Prime Ministers aren't elected. Stephen Harper's government received a renewed (and strengthened) mandate in the May 2, 2011 general election, where his party, the Conservative Party of Canada, won a majority of the seats in the House of Commons.
