yes, the latex paint does get sucked into the cement, and will 'seal' the cement to an extent, but it will not completely waterproof the structure, and thus a sealer would be needed- at least for the areas which are constantly in contact/exposed to water.
In areas not exposed to direct contact with standing(the basin) or running water(the pathway of the waterfall), the latex paint itself is all you need.
I hope this helps a bit, good luck! Make sure you post some photos of the completed project. Cheers,
