This is the link to the DOSBox build that contains NE2000 emulation.  
With this version of DOSBox you can load the NE2000 packet driver and 
then use DOS networking applications.  I use it for initial testing of 
mTCP code; it allows me to test the code on the same box that I use for 
development.  (After initial testing I move to a virtual machine, and 
then real hardware.)

Some details on using it and the necessary packet driver can be found here

Remember, DOSBox is not real DOS.  There are some notable differences, 
like the Ctrl-Break handling.  It is primarily designed for running 
older games on newer hardware.  But it does very well for a lot of 
applications, and it is convenient.
