No - the agent cannot assume that the varbind within a PDU will appear in
a particular order.   Nor can the client application that generates a SET
assume that they will be processed in a given way.

SNMP SET requests must be applied "as if simultaneously",
i.e. the order is irrelevant.

Typically this requires a multi-pass approach.
First checking and validating each varbind individually,
and then doing cross-varbind consistency checks.

Have a look at the discussion in AGENT.txt of SET processing.
and how some of the existing MIB module code handles this.
