villain is a solid multitabler, has been playing very aggressively and stealing lots of blinds, is this a good push?

It's not the worst, depends on his reads on you.. but I find even solid multitablers will call a "fair" bit here. Depends how wide you think his range is?

I think his range for stealing here is pretty big, he'd raised probably 5 out of the last 6 hands and everyone folded. I'd say he has anywhere from top 50% to top 65%.

As far as his read on me, he'd just seen me push 42o from the button and get knocked out in another tournament, so if he knows pushbot strategy (I think he does) then he knows I know it too. However, I hadn't played a hand in quite a while in this one, and really have no idea what sort of range he puts me on.

For what its worth he called me with K6o, which surprised me a bit

His pot odds are too good, he will know this if he is a good player like you say he is. He may also know that you are a good player and widen your restealing range.
