You can do that. Right-clicking on a smart playlist and selecting "load" is 
the easiest way to update a smart playlist. A smart playlist determines which 
files to load into the playlist when you load it. A dynamic playlist on the 
other hand uses the smart playlist that are configured as its sources to 
select a new song to append to the playlist after playing a song. New tracks 
will therefore be picked up automatically by dynamic playlists.
