No, that doesn't work. There are no guarantees about the ordering of
the probe of the i2c_hid device and the panel and the order could
change from version to version of Linux. Also: deasserting this reset
early like this (before regulators are turned on) can cause leakage
since that will make the signal go high and the touchscreen can suck
current out of that line.

Is it possible to change the hardware to fix this and have separate
reset lines for the touchscreen and the panel?

For a long time, I have felt like we needed a better solution in Linux
for stuff like this, but I've never found a clean way to do it. We
really want the touchscreen to power on and off together with the
panel, where the panel is in charge and the touchscreen always powers
on after the panel and powers off before the panel. I can't promise
anything, but I can see if I can find some time to whip up a
prototype.

nit: put a blank line above.

You need device tree bindings for the above compatible string.
