I had the same question about a year ago.
Here is what I came up with.
It works on section (subsection) level, not on paragraph level.
I can either export one language or both for comparison.
I’ve used yasnippets to insert the @@latex environments.
You can select which language to export by removing the space in the +SELECT_TAGS: line.

* Text deutsch :german:

Hier ist ein Text.
@@latex:\end{otherlanguage}@@
* Text englisch :english:
@@latex:\begin{otherlanguage}{english}@@
Here is some text.
@@latex:\end{otherlanguage}@@
This was used for one smallish project.
Most of my documents are german only.
