Breaching Twice

Would it considered Breaching if we Cross, back up back in to the Neutral Zone and Cross again?

You may want to re-read the definition of Breaching. What you have described is two Crossings on the same Defense, which is not the same as Breaching.

Defenses are Breached when 4 of the 5 are Damaged; Damaging a Defense requires Crossing it twice.

But, yes, as long as you start clear of the defense in the neutral zone and end up on the courtyard clear of the defense for both trips, then you will have damaged that defense.

Re: Breaching Twice

Make sure that you're clear long enough for the refs to notice. They don't use instant replay. If you're going to damage defenses this way, I suggest planning to put your bumpers over the center line on the neutral zone side and the alignment line on the courtyard side.
