I don't know what you are reading, but I suggest you stop.
That is completely incorrect.

No.

What do you mean by that?
SNMP provides two styles of information retrieval:
- the value of a specific cell
(i.e. the column value for a given index)
- the value of the "next cell"
(i.e. the column value for the "next index" - whatever that
index might be)
These are the only two alternatives for retrieving information.
That's one of the reasons this is called the "simple" network management
protocol.
Of course, you can always walk through the whole of a MIB table
and save the results - then search that stored information in
whatever ways you require. But there isn't a mechanism for
doing anything complex within the protocol itself.
