No.

The Net-SNMP agent and MIB module APIs do not use the Microsoft
SNMP Agent API, so things cannot be integrated in that way.

If the Microsoft agent supported the Internet standard AgentX
mechanism, then you could run the Net-SNMP-based agent as an
AgentX client. But AFAIK, the MS agent doesn't support AgentX.

It would doubtless be useful if someone could develop an
MS-SNMP interface for the Net-SNMP agent - either for plugging
Net-SNMP-based modules into the Microsoft agent, or MS-based
modules into the Net-SNMP agent.
But until someone supplies the necessary code, that's not
going to be possible.
