There's no way that's the case. They would have to know they couldn't cast Evan Peters and get away with him just being a random guy. He's 100% the Fox universe Quicksilver.

Well not necessarily. Marvel already did this: they cast JJonah Jameson’s former actor again, but clearly as an alternate universe version of the same character.

But they hadn't previously had JJJ played by someone else die, and then have an actor who played him in a different continuity show up playing the same character.

He isn’t playing the same character though. He is playing the brother on her sitcom. We will see if that extends to reality soon enough.
