I think it would be difficult to do exactly that. When pdflatex is run,
it over-writes the PDF file. It's only by examining the logs after that
happens that we know whether to do another run. So I think you will need
to copy the old PDF. In principle, you could rename the tex file itself,
and then run pdflatex. But I expect that will be hard to get right.
