Yes. The only reason to be careful with multi-threaded applications, is that activity in one thread can potentially change infomration that another thread is also working with. The Net-SNMP agent framework has not been written in a thread-safe manner, so it would be dangerous to have two threads, both manipulating the same (non-thread-safe) Net-SNMP data. But if your second (third, fourth, fifth,...) threads aren't touching the Net-SNMP stuff at all, then they shouldn't affect the agent or subagent in the slightest.
