One table, two agents?

Can I have two subagents each responsible for a diferent range of record
in a table?  RFC 1471 says that the RS232 interface underlying a PPP
link should have an entry in ifTable but I've got an existing subagent
that deals with my "real" network interfaces and I'd rather not clutter
it with PPP code.  What I really want to do is write a subagent that
deals with all PPP-related data.  So I'd want my existing subagent to
continue to be responseible for 

   RFC1213-MIB::ifIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
   ...
   RFC1213-MIB::ifIndex.9 = INTEGER: 9
   RFC1213-MIB::ifIndex.16 = INTEGER: 16
   RFC1213-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: "Port 1"
   ...
   RFC1213-MIB::ifDescr.9 = STRING: "Port 9"
   RFC1213-MIB::ifDescr.16 = STRING: "Management port"
   RFC1213-MIB::ifType.1 = INTEGER: ethernet-csmacd(6)
   ...
   RFC1213-MIB::ifType.9 = INTEGER: ethernet-csmacd(6)

but have my PPP subagent responible for something like:

   RFC1213-MIB::ifIndex.100 = INTEGER: 100
   RFC1213-MIB::ifDescr.100 = STRING: "ppp0"
   RFC1213-MIB::ifType.100 = INTEGER: ppp(23)
   RFC1213-MIB::ifSpecific.101 = <something that refers to 101 below>
   RFC1213-MIB::ifIndex.101 = INTEGER: 101
   RFC1213-MIB::ifDescr.101 = STRING: "ttyS01"
   RFC1213-MIB::ifType.101 = INTEGER: other(1)

Can I do that?  Can I make multiple subagents responsible for different
ranges of the same table?  Where do I adjust that?

TIA.

                                         Chris
