But you WILL make conflicts with it. You CANNOT run two dhcp servers
on a network without some co-ordination. You really, really CANNOT
just start up another DHCP server with a different subnet.

Have you read the man pages ? "allow known clients" will result in
only known clients being allowed a lease from the pool, known clients
being clients with a host declaration.
So only the defined hosts will get an address, those with a fixed
address declaration with get that address, others will get a dynamic
address.

Absolutely not, that WILL cause problems.
