"When fingertip nerves get damaged from frostbite, do they regenerate,
or is
this a permanent condition?"
You should recover fully from the frost nip which you received (you did
not have frostbite).
It may take a year or so for normal feeling in the finger tips to
return. Don't do what you did often, or you could bring about a chronic
condition called Reynaud's syndrome, which can be a durable and irksome
thing.
