Yes.
The '::' in the YAML version are not special to YAML. In particular, they
have no implication of nesting; they are just ordinary characters in that
context, so the YAML form expresses a key
"collectd::plugins::write_riemann::riemann_protocol" with associated value
"UDP", the pair belonging to a (possibly-undelimited) top-level mapping.
The JSON you present is altogether different.
This should work, I think:
"collectd::plugins::write_riemann::riemann_protocol": "UDP"
