No; depending on the reactor design, either the ships would have exploded immediately after being hit by the electrolasers due to the antimatter containment being disabled, or the reactor would not have exploded but the self-destruct system would also be fried. I can't think of a way that you could have an operable self-destruct despite every other system in the ship being wrecked (unless for some reason it ran on clockwork or something, and even then I don't know how you would receive a signal to self-destruct without a working communications system). AP, your choice, I'm okay with either having the self-destruct not work or retconning to have them blow up upon being hit.
