Yes. There is not a required relationship between community strings
and agents that mandates a one to one mapping. Some implementations,
however, may implement it that way but its not specified by the
protocol to do so.
Trap reporting is implementation dependent as well, but typically the
list of trap destinations would be configured with the community
string they wish to use when sending traps to that destination.
