This isn't currently possible.

I think it would not be a trivial change, as we would have to tag each OID 
(when they are pooled from all the tests for a template), and then establish 
separate SNMP "sessions" in different versions, and wait for both sessions to 
complete before sending the data back to the main process.

As I also wanted to move away from device-specific templates to MIB-based 
templates in future, this puts a spanner in that to some extent.
