Is it possible to analyse crossed coupled oscillator this way?

Now I will ask more specific question and hope someone can help.
For example at first both capacitors and inductors are charged.
Why do you know that at a time there is only one transistor is ON?

We know that because there is a very strong positive feedback in this type of a circuit.
For example if voltage at point Y is increasing the M1 will be "more open".
This means "more" will current flow through Rp1. So there will be more voltage drop across Rp1 resistor. So the Vsd1 voltage will be drop (at point X). And this will reduces M2 current. And voltage at point Y will increase even more. And voltage at point X will be further decreases and so on.

Thanks, I see that it is a bit like differential amplifier.
But what happen after that? I can't see that how the circuit oscillate?
