Yes and no.... If you are taking info from a live database you would have it in a steady state to copy it. This means locking the tables. But once you have a copy of the table all you would need to do is update the changes from the logs. Using replication for this I is the most simple way but would mean a second copy of MySQL but you would only need a low spec system..
I hope this helps...
