Sure, you can just run /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <HostNameOrIP> and it will return a quick blurb showing the version.

I believe the initial question has been answered by Scott.

If you're looking to go under the hood with check_nt and NSClient, they are open source projects and I would recommend reviewing the source code on the following GitHub pages.
