It actually depends on the defenition of monk. My version of that class is the somewhat more zealous character (religious or not), and therefore I would find it hard to believe a monk would allow himself to be associated with thieves and the likes. Of course, your definition may differ from mine, but just see below the spoiler tags why I find a monk a hard-to-believe profession for someone like Yoshimo.

Slight Spoiler!

If we're looking for an example of a good monk, I think Balthazar in Throne of Bhaal perfectly well illustrates what I think being a monk is all about. Compare his behaviour to the (known) behaviour of Yoshimo and I see a big difference.
