The normal_check_interval is x number of units where the units are defined 
by interval_length in the nagios.cfg. If you set interval_length=10 in 
nagios.cfg and a normal_check_interval=36 then the check interval would be 
360 seconds. The answer is that you can in fact do what you have asked but 
more than likely not in the manner in which you wish to do so. You could, 
in theory, set the interval_length to 1 and then all check intervals 
throughout nagios would be in seconds. What you cannot do is use different 
measurements of time for different intervals. You have a definition of the 
units used and all intervals throughout are multiples of that unit.

For the record top posting after having been responded to in a proper 
manner makes it very hard to follow and harder to answer.
