You can do that in Bash, in fact I do it for deployment to make sure 
nrpe is in /etc/services.

Why not just have one global nrpe config that you have on all hosts though?

This is way easier to manage and maintain. You just make up different 
check command names for very specific things.
This also simplifies things incredibly and means you could never lose 
your config, unless all your nrpe holding servers burned down along with 
your svn server and all your backups.
