When result is an image, you can use #+caption and other affiliated
keywords to control how the image is rendered in LaTeX. So, yes, you can
use LaTeX source block.
It will be also somewhat easier if you want to re-generate previews of
the rendered image only.
However, direct LaTeX is (naturally) more flexible. If you need some
non-trivial typesetting, you may have better luck with direct LaTeX.
