Some time ago David suggested something like this to me after a similar
request: 

(defun TeX-toggle-escape nil (interactive)
  (setq LaTeX-command
        (if (string= LaTeX-command "latex") "latex -shell-escape" "latex")))

(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook
          '(lambda ()
             (define-key LaTeX-mode-map "\C-c\C-t\C-x" 'TeX-toggle-escape)))

Now one can toggle the use of '-shell-escape' with 'C-c C-t C-x'.
