No - it's much more complicated than that, partly because bare newlines
in LaTeX are completely ignored (except that two newlines in a row
signal end of paragraph - assuming of course that you are in paragraph
mode...), partly because the constructs that try to emulate newline
behavior (\\, \linebreak, \newline) are very context-dependent.
For a flavor of some of the complications, see this thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/17333
particularly Bastien's summary of a reply that Sebastien Vauban
got in the fr.comp.text.tex newsgroup. Even that, complicated
as it is, is not complete.
