I'm sure they'll try to avoid that if possible (e.g. you don't see a lot of Southwest landing using 25L on normal approach). However, I remember once coming in about 1AM on a delayed JFK-LAX flight on AA and we landed on 07R and it took almost 30 minutes to taxi back to T4 (this was before the center taxiway so we had to hold for departures on 07L). Can't imagine going to the other side... that would have been a 45 minute ride on the ground.
