No,
Virtual conenct modules external connections can only be used as uplinks. External servers cannot be plugged directly into these ports.

No. It won't work.

But if you connect the uplinks from the VC to same switch where the ML and DL are connected you will be able to access the Blades and ML and DL in the same Network.
