Will this fit in my 1989 Jeep Cherokee Laredo? If not can you provide me the right part.

No, the Crown Automotive 4778125 Tailgate Lock Cylinder will not fit your 1989 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. This specific part is designed for the 1997–2001 Cherokee XJ models.
For a 1989 Cherokee XJ, you need a lock cylinder compatible with the 1984–1990 model years. The original Mopar part numbers for your vehicle are 83505068 (Black) or 83510179 (Chrome/Bright). The Crown Automive Part is: 4778123 though you should verify if it matches the "push-button" style of your Laredo's specific trim year.

Does this reuse the original tumblers so that your factory key still works?

No, the Crown Automotive 4778125 Tailgate Lock Cylinder does not reuse the original tumblers to work with your factory key.
Aftermarket lock cylinders, like this one, come with a new set of tumblers and their own unique key.
If you want the new tailgate lock cylinder to work with your existing factory key, you would generally need to:
Purchase the new lock cylinder.
Take it to a locksmith. A skilled locksmith can often disassemble the new cylinder and re-key it to match your original key by replacing the internal tumblers with ones that correspond to your key's cuts.
The Crown Automotive 4778125 will come with its own key, separate from your Jeep's ignition and door keys. If you desire a single key for all locks, you'll need to have the new cylinder re-keyed.
