No, not if you mean a 'subdomain' as defined by the MS MMC
where it is PART of the parent domain zone -- there is only one
zone so there is only one SOA in the file/record set.
If you mean a subdomain with it's own child DNS zone then, Yes,
there will be an SOA in each separately delegated child zone file.

You cannot add a CNAME? MX? Or TXT record? etc.?
Something is wrong. What happens specifically when you right click on
the zone, subdomain and choose New "xxx"? Are they all greyed out?

Go to the command line and use NSLookup to specifically query the
nameserver.

Are you typing: recordname.subdomain.site.com?
You might have left the host name blank so that it would be just
"subdomain.site.com" but then there would be little reason for
a subdomain IF you only wanted to add records with this same
name (and not more records within the subdomain.)
