Yes - assuming that agent supports AgentX

That much is definitely possible.

You would need to check the documentation for the
AIX agent.   We don't have access to AIX kit, so
don't know how extensible the AIX agent is.
   But if it supports AgentX then you should be
able to hook a Net-SNMP based subagent to it.

Ask the AIX people about the extension capabilities
of their agent.
