Is it possible to apply after an absence in the country?

Hi,
I lived in the UK for over 10 years i.e., September 2006 - April 2017
I tried to apply for naturalisation but was rejected due to lack of entry in the WRS between 2009-2011 (even though the extension was deemed unlawful) so they said the earliest I can apply is September 2011.
Decided not to wait and left the country for a bit. If I come back, does that period (2011-2017) still counts or do I need to start my 6-year period all over again?
