Bumba,

Not before takeoff, no, but think of it this way- we have a V1 which is achieved near the end of the take-off roll and from which we know we can stop the aircraft in the runway remaining.

It is therefore pretty much certain that if land in the firt 450m of the same runway at the same weight, we are going to be able to stop!!
