IMO you can only de-odex'ing an existing .odex file (convert it in .dex and then make an .apk) with the dsixda-kitchen. But franco will go the contrary way (.apk and .odex from stock-rom to one .apk for custom-rom). I dont know a possible way for this (maybe another kitchen?).
Edit: A good tutorial for Odexing back (and manually deodexing) is here:

[Q] two questions regarding odexed and deodexed

Hi all xda-dev experts
I have two questions regarding odexed and deodexed roms and apps;
1. If I have deodexed rom installed on my phone, and I want to replace one default deodexed apk with one odexed from an odexed rom, can I simply copying the .apk and the corresponding .odex files into /system/app/ ?
2. If I have odexed rom installed on my phone, and I want to replace one default odexed apk with one deodexed from an deodexed rom, can I simply copying the .apk into /system/app/ and then deleting or leaving the corresponding .odex files?
I'm no expert though, but I don't think you can.
There is an app call "OdexMy" that convert all apps in system/app to odex, but for one application ? i'm not sure.

How about Xperia S ICS rom? there are some apks that are odexed while the other apks aren't, the files inside framework folder too; some are odexed and the others aren't.
P.S.
I'm not asking about deodexing some odexed apks or vice versa.

Deodex theme on odex Rom

Ok, I am running cr2.5 (which is odex) and all the themes I see for it including kinda crap mods seem to be deodexed... so if I want to make my own theme I can just deodex some apks to theme them and then just leave them deodexed and just delete the .odex file when I replace them?
Wouldn't it be better to re-odex them (but if so why don't all the themes already out there have them re-odexed)?

so nobody knows?
Yes. You have to deodex to easily mod APKs. Yes you can odex after mods. Do you need to? Not necessarily. Do you have to remove old odex file? yes. Does it matter? Not really. Will only notice on first boot and and a few deodexed files will not make a noticeable difference. Total odex verses deodex will be a few/several seconds on boot. Odex these days considering the speed of these devices is basically to slow down kang if dev knows how to encrypt it or the dev can't get all the files to successfully deodex.
