Some people use "anadrome" (anagram + palindrome) but that isn't a grammatically recognized word, and I believe it is also the French word for a type of fish. I'm pretty sure that there is no term for a word that spells another when reversed; it is simply a type of anagram. (It would actually make more sense if the former were the definition, because "anagram" means "to write backward".)
star -> rats, live -> evil, now -> won, net -> ten, not -> ton.... I can't think of any others offhand, but playing Text Twist on Yahoo! games usually produces several. :)
