Loial preserved the Green Man as a tree in the middle of the Blight. Rand knows where this tree is. Rand could easily make this tree bear fruit again. Could that fruit be a new Green Man?
Even if Rand could somehow "resurrect" the Nym, how would he get him out of the blight that is now swarming with trollocs? Remember, the Green Man and his kind are artificial constructs created by the Aes Sedai and as such instantly die if they go through a gateway.
I suspect that if the Nym will return, it will be because Rand now remembers (from LTT) how they were made in the first place, and has the skill to repeat the process. There are lots of ter'angreal lying around everywhere afterall. One could be a Nym-creator or something that LTT would recognize.
More likely though, is that they won't return.
Q: Why can't Shadowspawn pass through gateways?
RJ: It's because they're artificial constructs. They can't tolerate the passage.
Q: So would a Nym have the same problem?
RJ: Yes.
Q: How about Ogier?
RJ: No. Ogier are not artificial constructs.
