Hello!
Yes it would work, but only if our correspondent was using his
emulated SIMH supported VAX on Windows(Ugh!) rather then on Linux, as
he's described. The product you suggest only runs on Windows.

There aren't too many suggestions available, except for tracking down
a terminal server such as the Model90L device or related from the
usual sources, and using that, after you've set up networking on the
simulation.
