No, the snmpd.conf file is parsed at run-time not compile-time.

If you're using mib2c you'll have to recompile the agent before the
code in it will work (unless you use the dynamic plugin support).

Also, mib2c certainly won't work unless it knows about the MIB you want to
generate code for, so yes you have to have written the MIB first.
