Not normal. My guess is there is something else going on there. Before I cleaned my TBs, my idle would occasionally dip under 500 and the engine would shudder. But never stalled. If cleaning the MAFs/TBs doesn't fix it you have to start looking elsewhere. That is just the first troubleshooting step because it's very easy to do and a good maintenance practice that often goes overlooked
