Is it possible to temporarily unexclude a file type excluded in the settings via the search box? Without having to fully un-exclude it and re-index? Thanks

No.
Please consider using a custom "Everything" filter:
- In Everything, from the Search menu, click Organize Filters....
- Select Everything and click Edit....
- Change the Search to:
!"C:\Program Files\" !"C:\Program Files (x86)\" !"C:\Windows\"
where "C:\Program Files", "C:\Program Files (x86)" and "C:\Windows" are the folders you wish to exclude (! = NOT).
- Click OK.
- Click New....
- Change the Name to: Everything (no excludes)
- Click OK.
- Click OK.
- In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
- Click the Exclude tab on the left.
- Uncheck Enable exclude list.
- Click OK.
The Everything filter and Everything (no excludes) filter can be accessed from the Search menu, filter bar (View -> Filters), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.
