Until shown otherwise trying to argue that they are still around simply because resurrection techniques exists is preposterous reasoning (since said logic would make it just as likely for Sarutobi to be walking around somewhere, not to mention Jiraiya, and any other characters that we have not seen since their death). They are dead until confirmed alive/zombie and arguing otherwise (beyond mere speculation) is pointless.
That being said, if the data books wish to be ambiguous, they will be (for instance, it was not confirmed if Kushina was alive or dead, the information was intentionally left vague so as to leave room for the eventual reveal of her character). Otherwise the entries are pretty straight forward (and sadly, Obito's and Izuna's info isn't very ambiguous). So, if they claim Izuna and Obito are dead, then we are left with their death as fact. That doesn't mean that they couldn't have been resurrected, but there is no actual evidence that points specifically to that speculation...
