Very, very sure.
The supposed astronomical alignment in 2012 doesn't involve the celestial equator. It's supposed to involve an alignment between the earth, sun and centre of the galaxy, but:
a) the alignment happens approximately every year
b) the closest to perfect alignment has already occurred
c) there is no discernible gravitational effect on the earth from such an alignment. The galaxy pulls on the sun and the earth
all the time, to a
minuscule degree.
Given that the forces from any such alignment are vanishingly tiny and that we are constantly exposed to them anyway, there's no reason for the mantle and core of the Earth to suddenly swing around: we get hauled around by the other planets to a much greater extent, and nothing happens.
It really requires only the most trivial knowledge of astronomy to realize that the pole has not shifted. A glance at the pole star, a check on the length of the day .... There are many, many ways to be sure that hasn't happened.
The return of Toutatis is just part of a four-year cycle that has been successfully predicted, in detail, several times now, along with many many other movements of many other celestial bodies. They do what physics predicts.

Then you've got to wonder how people who predict disaster in 2012 can possibly know such a thing, or even
think they know such a thing.
Add to that the fact that they can't even be bothered to check their facts about this alleged pole shift by going out and looking at the sky ... who are you going to believe?
