A bit silly yes, but also technically interesting.

You don't disclose the intention behind doing this. This makes it a bit
hard to advise properly. What do you want to achieve by not being
dependent on libmosquitto's mosquitto_connect()?
Are you testing broker connectivity and intend just to make a TCP
connection to reach the broker, or do you actually need to create a MQTT
session on the broker and maybe even use it afterwards?
The first is easily achived by using plain telnet, netcat or openssl
s_client without sending any data. Depending on the broker's logging
capabilities and level you'll probably see a log error message saying
that a client attempted to connect but didn't adhere to the MQTT protocol.
Using netcat:
$ nc -z localhost 1883
The Mosquitto broker on localhost 1883 configured with "log_type debug"
will emit in its "log_dest file" log:
1522681207: New connection from 127.0.0.1 on port 1883.
1522681207: Socket error on client <unknown>, disconnecting.
Taking it a bit further as MQTT is a binary protocol you'll need some
fiddling to actually talk to the broker on the command line. It is not
as straight forward as HTTP/SMTP and other text oriented protocols.
Establishing the first interaction between a client and broker, ie.
client sending the CONNECT control packet[1] and receiving a CONNACK[2]
reply, can be done on the command line as follows using netcat. This is
again to an unencrypted broker, the client identifying itself with
ClientId "a" asking for CleanSession=0.
$ echo -en "\x10\x0d\x00\x04MQTT\x04\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01a" |nc localhost
1883|hd
00000000 20 02 01 00 | ...|
00000004
Request and reply being binary it is not obvious to see what is going on
unless you are familiar with the details of the protocol (for starters,
first byte indicates control packet type, where 0x10 in request is
CONNECT, 0x20 in reply is CONNACK).
Mosquitto broker log from this exchange, showing the broker accepting
the "a" client:
1522681274: New connection from 127.0.0.1 on port 1883.
1522681274: Client a disconnected.
1522681274: New client connected from 127.0.0.1 as a (c0, k0).
1522681274: Sending CONNACK to a (1, 0)
1522681274: Socket error on client a, disconnecting.
This can also be done on encrypted endpoints using openssl s_client
(somehow s_client stdout doesn't behave well when piped, so redirect to
tempfile, and s_client needs to be manually terminated using ctrl-c):
$ echo -en "\x10\x0d\x00\x04MQTT\x04\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01a" |openssl
s_client -quiet -connect test.mosquitto.org:8883 >out
depth=1 C = GB, ST = United Kingdom, L = Derby, O = Mosquitto, OU = CA,
CN = mosquitto.org, emailAddress = roger@xxxxxxxxxx
verify error:num=19:self signed certificate in certificate chain
^C
