No.
The 'Response' PDU is only sent in response to an explicit
request PDU, be that a Get, GetNext, GetBulk or Set request.
The clue is in the name "response" :-)


The appropriate mechanism for the agent to independently notify
a management station of some information would be to use one
of the notification PDUs - i.e. 'trap' or 'inform'
   They are most typically used to report some form of error condition
or fault,  but they could equally well be used to implement a regular
polling mechanism.

There should be some example code in the source tree that
implements a 'heartbeat' trap, which might be a suitable starting point for you.
