Yes, but if a 1 page pdf invoice is what you want, it certainly is
overkill. What you want is more akin to a custo cover page in which you
input the data as org properties like in

#+TITLE: Your Title Here
#+SUBTITLE: Subtitle here
#+DATE: dd/mm/yyyy
#+AUTHOR: your name (or it can be taken as fixed)
#+EMAIL: eduardo@mercovich.net
#+YOURDEFINEDFIELDS: added here, as many as you like.

The effort is meaningfull if you plan to do many and want to minimize
the task. If not, I'm afraid that a simpler approach -like a pdf created
from LibreOffice Calc- may be more adequate...
