In theory yes, but most of the extra agents you can install throught the Channel Directory are "secondary agents", they work together with one of the default primary agents (Freebase, The Movie Database and/or Personal Media).

Currently these extra primary agents are available in the Channel Directory:

  • Ciné-Passion: French and English metadata. Note: You must have a login and be a donator to use it;
  • DFI (Danish Film Institute): Danish metadata;
  • Filmz.ru: Russian metadata

You can check the Metadata Agents forum for some extra agents developed by members of the community. I'm writing one for Yahoo Movies B)
