Yes, it means to refill or restore. You can't replenish something which was never there in the first place.

Exactly, to refill.

OP said 'something' came before... If I had coriander seeds in my spice rack, and ran out... I couldn't 'replenish' them with mustard seeds. That would be to 'replace' them.

'Something' came before is not replenishing. Replenishing is like for like.

Right. It means there was something there before, and now it needs to be replenished.
