This is already possible, as once explained by Nicolas on this ML:

  ╭────
  │ You can also have macros generating raw code geared towards LaTeX or HTML
  │ back-ends (through export-snippets). For example:
  │ 
  │ #+MACRO: my-mod @@e-latex:\something{$1}@@@@e-html:<div 
class="something">$1</div>@@
  │ 
  │ This is an example: {{{my-mod(text)}}}.

Best regards,
  Seb
