Does anyone know if you can snap a replica volume on the destination volume so you can roll back the image (block & file)? I know it is a bit noddy but I thought I'd ask.
One limitation regarding user snapshots is that snapshots of a replication destination may not be restored. This applies for all types of native replication sessions. This is because restoring a destination resource would undermine the purpose of the replication session, which is to have a remote replica of the source storage resource. Snapshots of source resources, however, may be restored without restriction, after which this change is copied to the destination.

No, please see the Unity Snapshots White Paper page 18:
