AFAIK, I don't think this is possible as headlines are exported as
either \section or \section* depending on your num: setting for the
whole document.

However, it *is* possible to do the opposite of what you want, albeit
with direct latex code.  That is, you can have sections *not* included
in the table of contents automatically but have those that you want
included by adding an explicit =\addcontentsline= directive into your
org file.  For example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+OPTIONS:   H:3 num:nil toc:t

#+LaTeX: \tableofcontents

* Introduction
  This is some introductory text.
* Included in toc
  #+LaTeX: \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{The actual entry in TOC}
  This section heading should appear in the table of contents.
* Conclusions
  But this will not appear in the toc.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Unfortunately, numbering is not done at all so you would have to do this
manually if you wanted numbers.  Also note that the "toc:t" setting is
actually ignored as you have not asked for numbering...  so you have to
explicitly ask for the table of contents yourself.

HTH,
eric
