Only if it was suicide by a double shot to the back of the head.

Headshots don't work like they do in video games/ movies. A person has a 42% chance of surviving a penetrative wound to the head.

And there are also plenty of cases where a fatal head-wound didn't prevent someone from completing complex tasks before expiring.

Most of these myths trace back to Gary Webb, a journalist who committed suicide by shooting himself twice in the head. Credulous people think the CIA killed him to prevent him from making their cocaine dealing public. Even though his article exposing the CIA was widely debunked and 20years old.

What's the likelihood of a reattempt, if the first shot wasn't fatal?

I'm not sure many people would be capable of doing so, given how addled they'd likely be

There is a difference between possible and likely. I'm not going to provide a source on that.
