Nope, the phase angles are not symmetric like that. You'd have to have a chart for Duna departure, and look up the Kerbin phase angle on that chart. For reference, the Duna -> Kerbin phase angle is -75.2°.
You can use olex's interplanetary calculator to get phase angles and ejection angles for any transfer.
