Correct.

Let say it takes A2 five seconds to gain control of the ball. The shot clock would read 25 seconds.
Not in a men's game. . .

Would your 10 second back court count could end with 15 seconds on the shot clock?
Yes.

While they are not the same by rule, they are very often the same in practice. Usually, the player who receives the inbound pass establishes control immediately; either by catching the ball or starting a dribble. Therefore, in most backcourt throw-in situations, the 10 second count should expire when the shot clock shows 25 seconds (Men's) or 20 seconds (Women's).
