Did you run ./autogen.sh before ./configure?
We have instructions for using AUCTeX from a local Git repo described
here[1]. Maybe that is easier for testing purposes.

I'd say this is the expected behavior[2]:
The :ensure keyword causes the package(s) to be installed automatically
if not already present on your system:
(use-package magit
:ensure t)
If you need to install a different package from the one named by
use-package, you can specify it like this:
(use-package tex
:ensure auctex)
I don't use use-package, but I think you need to use-package tex and not latex.
