EDIT: Science adds a useful comment...
You actually do encounter a GCD from swapping, but on casts longer than the GCD (such as Starfire), there is no penalty, but on instant casts (Moonfire), you encounter a slightly longer GCD due to the idol swap.
So be a little more careful than I and the following post make it sound like you should be; there are times when the global cool down (GCD) will effect your spellcasting, mainly if you jump to Moongoddess without pausing in between (more important on raids, I suppose).

You can use every single different Idol for every single different spell you cast without causing any sort of GCD delay.
#showtooltip Moonfire
/cast moonfire
/equip Idol of the Unseen Moon
#showtooltip Starfire
/cast Starfire
/equip Ivory Idol of the Moongoddess
#showtooltip Wrath
/cast Wrath
/equip Idol of the Avenger

One must also be careful not to click (press) the next spell in your rotation before the previous GCD is up otherwise you'll reset the GCD and have to wait before casting. With proper timing, idol swapping is very beneficial (at least in my opinion).
