It should work fine, yes.
The Net-SNMP suite just uses the openSSL library to implement
SHA1 authentication, and DES/AES encryption.   As long as the
OpenSSL library includes this support, it should work OK.

You'd need to talk to the OpenSSL people to check when this support
first arrived, but I strongly suspect that it was relatively early in their
development process.   I can't see that you would have a problem with
any half-way-recent version.

But suck it and see.
