I dont have an answer about your NRPE question, but if i had to guess
i would say its not possible with out support compiled in.

I did recently find this however:

http://www.edcint.co.nz/checkwmiplus/

I have it running all kinds of checks via WMI on my domain and it has
the ability to restart a hung or dead process, i would recommend you
check it out, i like it alot better than NRPE and there is no client
to install.

Hope that helps.
