IIUC what you want, yes.

There is contrib/lisp/org-screenshot.el for taking screenshots. It needs scrot.

Also, some posts showing how to roll your own screenshot during the last 
six months or so, some of which do not use scrot. If you are on MAC OS X
and do not want to install scrot, this might be good enough:

If you have

* headline

text text text

[[file:path-to/my-file.jpg]]


Then the image gets rolled into your pdf.

You might need to mess with the width if you do not want full width
for an image.
