I'm not sure what you are getting at. If you have a z/OS 1.4 system connected via EE (or a "real" CTC connection) to a 2.2 system and you tn3270 into that new(er) system, then every EE (or CTC connected, (i.e. cross domain)) application that is defined to that new(er) system (even if cross domain to the old box) is available. I think what you are trying to get at is that IF your old system doesn't support TCP/IP but can be connected to a new(er) system that does support both EE (or a CTC connection to the older box) and TCP/IP can you get to the VTAM applications that are available to the older system via the connections between the old system and new system, then the answer is yes. But since z/OS 1.4 also supported TCP/IP you don't need the other new(er) system for that.
How you get INTO the system (any system) via TCP then any (VTAM) applications are available once you are there are available whether the connection is through a physical CTC between the two systems or EE (which can use IP). So I'm a little confused by the question. Just because you can't directly connect to the CICS region on the old(er) system via TCP, doesn't mean that you can't get to it via a TCP connected device. That's what the emulators are for. But maybe that's not your question either. Sorry that I can't help any more without some clarifications.
