Without knowing antenna isolation, turnaround loss of the PA's, feedline
type, tower condition, and probably a few dozen other factors, it's hard to
say.  What kind of interference potential are you insinuating?  IM problems?
Desense?  

Considering that the transmit frequencies are close enough to pass through
the opposing duplexer with little loss, without a sufficient antenna
isolation or isolators, IM is a strong possibility.

Desense between repeaters due to transmitter noise from repeater A raising
the noise floor at receiver B, or repeater A's carrier being too strong at
receiver B (and vice versa on both counts) is highly unlikely given the 25
kHz split and response of pass/reject duplexers at that close of a spacing.
