Yes, but the amount of data you can get is pretty limited. In your setup, the printer doesn't do any SNMP. The Jetdirect does. It in turn needs to figure out whatever information the Printer may make available. And given how infrequently parallel is used nowadays, I doubt that HP is investing all that much into R&D for it.
Remember - the Centronics interface dates back to even before the IBM PC - about a third of a century old by now, when Centronics made 9-pin printers for more than $1000. Even just being able to report anything at all was a later addition, originally it was outgoing only.
