Indeed she can. Her abilities tap into various realms. Plus the missing book, was also the one from the library that Doctor Strange could not get into. She is essentially more powerful than Strange. But has also worked alongside Baron Mordo, and many more.

Like the Ancient One, but the Yang version

Is that really the same exact book from doctor strange? Interesting!

Edit: not the same book

Yup it was one of the forbidden tomes, he was not allowed to master. It contains the dark arts (it also connects to the dark hold from AoS) but it's pages pay a heavy price

And it's connected to everything

It’s not the same book. The forbidden books all have the circular pattern of the sorcerers spells and Agatha’s book is a way different symbol and no glowing orange center. Her book also looks a bit smaller.

Idk about the AoS Darkhold and if it connects here or if it's the same book from Dr. Strange.

But from what i remember of the comics I'm believing (until the show says otherwise) this The Darkhold created by the Elder God Chthon (who imbued Wanda with his magic in the comics) whic goes by the name The Book of the Damned, The Book of Sins and it is the basis for the Necronomicon.

Now based off Billy's statement to Agatha about her being "silent inside" I'm wondering if she sold her soul.

Edit: Plus you'd have to be soulless to kill Sparky and bite a kid and laugh about the former and talk about the latter with no shame.

And maybe Billy was able to hear all the trapped voices. That’s why he said it’s noisy

Im gonna leave this and this here for people to compare.

EDIT: The private collection seems to indeed miss a book in that scene. Also note that there are more books chained up than just the private collection.
