There is no need for templates to be involved at all. Django's
serializers will turn a queryset into a serialized string. That string
can be provided literally as the content for a HttpResponse (just
remember to set the content type for the response to suit the
serialization format). You don't need to go through a template
rendering process on top of this.

What you then do on the client side is entirely up to you - jQuery
provides some nice deserialization methods for AJAX requests, but
there are many other options.
