This would be difficult insofar as not all Windows OSes have telnet by default.  If you were to find some way to distribute it, or make it a prerequiste for using your application, you could certainly call it from within your application.
That would also be blocked by any firewall.  Incoming connections are usually blocked unless you specifically open the port for it.
