Unless you have a backup of your profile folder then you probably have lost the logins and yoiu will have to reset the password for these websites.
Are there other devices still connected to that Firefox account ?
Note that Sync isn't designed to be used as a backup, but is merely meant to sync data between connected devices. Best is always to backup your personal data locally.

Probably no if you had no Jason4 file backup there is no way to get them back. You didn't loose the password you lost the autofill login only. You will need to do a Firefox password reset for Firefox but the others if you didn't save them on paper or notepad file them there's not much else that can be done here.
