Yes, you can use a local variable.
I like to store configuration components in the library of babel and
call them from there.
So, I have is in the library:
#+name: set-pdf-process-biber
#+header: :results silent
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-latex-pdf-process
'("pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
"biber %b"
"pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
"pdflatex -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"))
#+end_src
Near the bottom of my document, in a heading tagged :noexport:, I have
this:
# Local Variables:
# eval: (sbe "set-pdf-process-biber")
