Not really.  Please complain to the author of natbib.sty.  He uses
\edef (not even address@hidden) on \mbox.  It is more or less pure
luck that this does not break with the default \mbox command.  If he
were to use address@hidden instead, this would be no problem with
preview.sty.

I might figure out a working fix involving eTeX (where available), but
this should really be fixed in natbib.sty.  Using \edef instead of
address@hidden on LaTeX macros is plainly a bug and very wrong.
