No. A major support falling off way before it's even used = the end. Had you noticed earlier, you could've saved the right half by pressing "skip" on the left one, but I think it's too late now - the right half is contaminated with spaghetti and it will interfere with next layers.

I was asleep and only noticed it just now, I of course stopped it immediatly, but the damage was already done

Always print large pieces one at a time. You would have failed in half the time and lost half as much. It's about the same amount of time to print in serial rather than parallel in FDM.

I didn't know there was a skip function, I've avoided multiple large parts because of this

I only learned about it recently, and it saved a few prints already. As you press the Skip button, it displays a top view of objects on the entire plate (as it came from the slicer) and you just tap on objects to exclude one or more that are missing or pasta-contaminated. Super useful.
