No, not at all.  With nmap you could probably identify nodes running the 
puppet *master*, but you cannot reliably identitfy whether nodes are 
running the agent because the agent does not necessarily accept network 
requests.  You could find only those that do, which at many sites (mine, 
for example) would be none.

The most you could do would be to monitor all network traffic to see which 
nodes talk to the puppetmaster, but that's not guaranteed to identify all 
agents, and collecting the data would take a longish time.
