No, it is not.
fxp0 is fully functional on backup RE (including Telnet/SSH/SNMP) - and 
backup RE by default does not run any control plane functions apart from 
monitoring master RE.

Inband for high-perf Netflow - yes.
Inband for SNMP - unless You want subsecond counter updates (for realtime 
billing maybe?) then no.
And I already answered Your points regarding "SNMP in HW" my other email.
