A new generation of spherical inflatable orbiting radio telescopes - could peer deeper into spacehttps://www.wired.com/story/new-space-telescopes-could-look-like-giant-beach-balls/ …
Could the inflating ball create the shape of the radio reflector dish, and then the dish 'cures' solid somehow, so the inflated ball is no longer needed (or doesn't need protection from debris)?

Yes, depending on the size of the puncture and whether they bring additional gas to keep it inflated.
