Depends on the size of the meeting and the length of the meeting.

For an hour-long lecture/seminar with less than 20 people, probably raising your question directly is fine.

For a 25 mins talk at a conference with 200 people, you will probably need to save your question to the end.

But it is always safer to ask beforehand.
