I am going to assume the β€œoil” in Just Stop Oil means fossil fuels – so oil, gas and coal...

Not even going that far.

The notion that oil is a "fossil" fuel is a pipe dream of John Rockefeller in the early 1900's to make the ubiquitous mineral known as oil seem scarce, unreplenishable, precious, and expensive. It is and was a marketing thing. 100 years ago, you could almost poke your pinky at the ground, and it'd erupt with a gusher. That's what happened to the Beverly Hillbillies!

Oil and gas are abiotic, they are not decayed dinosaurs or even plankton or whatever. "depleted" oil wells refill themselves after time.
