Concerning harassements in a fediverse (lemmy.ml)

If say a harasser, after getting banned let’s presume, goes to another instance and create another account to keep harassing, is there anything one can do?

You can report them to both your instance and the instance that is hosting their accounts. On mastodon you can also mask them, which I guess doesn't inform them of anything. So I would the mask them anytime they messaged me. It has never happened to me so I don't know how effective it is.
