I'm positive. :) Please see the final portion of Piyavkin's mail.
As for copying the image raw to a partition with dd - that also works.
An example:
menuentry "Debian Live KDE" {
search --label --set=root "Debian wheezy 20131014-01:18"
linux /live/vmlinuz2 boot=live config quiet splash
initrd /live/initrd2.img
}
A little more work than using loopback with a file copied to the stick
but it can cater for images where loopback is of no help (like Debian
installer images). It requires some juggling with partition sizes when
using multiple images but my present stick has sixteen partitions.

Changes creep up on us unawares.
