'AzureDevops build agents - Can one agent pool have multiple agents build using different PATs?

I have working local Agent Pool (deploy) which already have 4 agents. They run ok but i need to add more agents. However i don't know the PAT that was used to create those agents. I am now using a different account to create another agent and it is created ok. But the pipelines that are using the Agent Pool (deploy) are not picking this new agent! Why is that?

The PAT is only used to create the agent's first auth session. Afterwards it sets up a new secure token.

You can setup agents with as many PATs as you'd like.
