Seems as long as you define the config files that you are going to use 
in nagios.cfg, you can have as many as you want (as long as they contain 
legitimate configs):

 From nagios.cfg:
--------------------
[...]
# You can split other types of object definitions across several
# config files if you wish (as done here), or keep them all in a
# single config file.

cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/contactgroups.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/contacts.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/dependencies.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/escalations.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostgroups.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hosts.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/services.cfg
cfg_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/timeperiods.cfg
[...]
