It is possible to know it always.
System commands `latex' or `pdflatex' will emit error status, you may
inspect it in shell with:
$ echo $?
The function `org-latex-compile' does not check for error status, but
it could. In general, external processes shall always be checked for
exit statuses.
It is matter of programming design if you wish or miss to get error
statuses and check for them.
