I've a 2ft planted tank right now and plan to do a major overhaul as in take out everything in it including livestock.
I'll be using different gravel and everything will be setup again within a few hours. What I want to know is is it okay to put my cherry shrimps back into the overhauled tank? I'll be using some old and new plants.

Well, at least used back your age tank water. It will help in getting the tank stablilized faster.

Resistance is futile, you will be administrated!
Try to keep some of your old water if possible. Secondly, reuse your filter including the old filter media. Don't wash the filter media, as it will destroy some of the bacteria. At most rinse it in old tank water.
If possible, continue running the filter in the temp container that contains your livestock so that the bacteria does not suffocate from lack of oxygen.

Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:A woman, without her man, is nothing.
A woman: without her, man is nothing.

Forgot to ask, so it's okay to put the livestock back immediately? No need to cycle the tank again?
Cos I'm planning to scrub down the tank.
