Does Nagios report on individual processes running (or not) on the monitored system? From the "about" page at nagios.org, that's not clear. It talks about monitoring "network services" such as HTTP, SMTP, etc., and "host resources" such as processor load, and disk utilization. Nothing about "process abc is running or not."
Easy to do by writing a plugin check. Could be as simple as "ps ugaxwww | grep processname" and then return 0 if it's there and 2 if it ain't. Combine this with NRPE and you have it running remotely. Estimated effort: 2 minutes per service.
