Mostly yes for iso-8859-5, but no for latin-1.  Try M-x
describe-fontset RET fontset-mac RET.

I'm not at the position that can make any "official" statements.
Nothing can prevent users from doing their preferred settings.  Also,
the current create-fontset-from-mac-roman has a performance problem
that I'm now taking up
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2005-07/msg00007.html).
I'd just say "I don't recommend the use of
create-fontset-from-fontset-spec on Carbon Emacs."
