The case could be reopened by the Prosecution because new evidence (i.e. the fact that you had committed perjury) had come to light. Whether or not they would do this would depend upon the seriousness of the matter.

yes it can as you would still have been attempting to pervert the course of justice and if they were found not guilty it could well have been because of the false alibi.
