Quite possibly, yes.
The "make install" typically re-links the agent binary
so that it can pick up the libraries from the installed location.
I'm really not sure how well things would work if you skip this step.

The usual technique is to run "make install" into a temporary location,
and then have the installer bundle things up from there.
Have a look at the 'dist/net-snmp.spec' file used for building RPMs.
The install block starts with
make DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install
(plus some other stuff).
The rpm builder then takes this %{buildroot} tree, and packages the
contents ready to install into the final live location.
That's probably a much safer approach.
