I don't understand this. In general in UNIX, you cannot access any of
the entities in an "unmounted file system" (other than some special
utilities when running "root").
You can mount a file system without being root; TDIITD. Doing so
requires that you know where it is, just as coding UNIT= and VOL=SER=
does.
I believe that automount will mount a filesystem for anybody;
not even any permission on its root directory is required.
Issuing the "mount" command, however, requires root privilege.

zOS 1.13 supports mounting of file systems by non-root users.
Nonprivileged users must meet certain requirements before they can mount
z/OS UNIX file systems. They must have the following access permissions:
• Read access to SUPERUSER.FILESYS.USERMOUNT profile. The
SUPERUSER.FILESYS.USERMOUNT resource name in the UNIXPRIV class allows
nonprivileged users to mount and unmount file systems with the
nosetuid option.
• Read-write-execute (rwx) access to the directory that the file system
will be mounted on.
• Read-write-execute (rwx) access to the file system root.
