There is no option of restoring the downloaded files from FF itself, You can only restore your Add-ons, bookmarks, passwords, preferences, history and tabs if you are using the "sync option".

If you have any utility setup in your OS to take periodic backups only then there is a possibility to restoring the files that has gone.

Are you talking about the Firefox downloads window, or the files that were downloaded? If you are asking about deleting the files from the computer, look for the computers Recycle or Trash bin. Deleted files are kept here for a time.
