The thing to do here is to work on a new, blank layer and not a copy of an existing layer.


With the clone tool you can sample the current layer and those below by setting the Sample attribute in the menu bar to Current and Below...

Doing this on a new  layer will mean you can see what's behind, (below), it as you clone stamp.


It also means you can turn this off, delete it, move it etc etc without changing the original image.....or in PS terms, Non-Destructively.



The 'Spot Healing Brush' also has this setting but its a toggle between all layers or not...

So you can use both these tools on blank layers enabling you to see the underlying layers.


The 'Create New Layer' Icon is at the bottom of the layers panel...2nd from right next to the bin.
