Um, no, this is not really good coding.  More like the opposite. (c:
Like this the hook will always be modified only buffer-locally when you
set it.  This might have unwanted side effects.

As mentioned above you should set the LOCAL argument of `add-hook'.  If
you look at the description of `add-hook' which can be checked with `C-h
f add-hook <RET>' then you'll see that this is the fourth argument.  So
the solution you are looking for would look something like this:

(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (add-hook 'kill-buffer-hook 'TeX-clean nil t)))
