Unlikely, as departing aircraft would have to cross the arrival runway twice for each departure. This would delay departures and increase taxiway congestion.
With around 90% of departing aircraft using intersection Echo, 09 Arrivals and 16 Departures is more efficient and has less risk, due to the independent nature of that operation.
