As far as I know, in two-man, you are only supposed to switch on fouls and on a sideline switch (see diagram 22 on page 34 of the Officials Manual). Therefore, the officials should always return to their same positions, except for a change of sides of the court, after the time-out.
Also I had never thought about this before, but it seems that if the ball were in a location that would have necessitated a sideline switch if a violation had been called (say a kicked ball by the defense) instead of a time-out being granted, (meaning ball location is lead's side, but above the free-throw line extended) then the officials should make this switch during the time-out.
