Yes you can configure SIMH to listen for incoming Telnet connections for both the console port and for multiplexer ports, for example DHV11 ports. I use that feature all the time using Kermit 95 as the Telnet client and VT100 emulator on the same 64-bit Windows 10 host that is running SIMH PDP-11 or VAX emulation. I don't remember the syntax for configuring this off the top of my head. I'll have to check.
