I don't have much experience at all with the python bits components but I believe the situation is such that the answer is generally yes, you could use proton to send/receive messages and get info from the broker, as the QMF tools are essentially sending/receiving particularly formatted messages to the broker that you could similarly produce/interpret yourself. The older components would have been using AMQP 0-10, whereas with Proton you would be using AMQP 1.0, and so there could be differences in specific approach due to that.
