If it's short enough. Telix has a 17-character limit in the phone book so
longer hostnames or IP+port combinations won't fit.

Well that's a shame. I wonder why that was omitted. It works in the Linux port
and Android is very closely related...
I have DosBox Turbo on some of my devices so I opened up the .conf by hand.
Sure enough the serial stanza is completely absent, and even if you add it in
manually the application doesn't react to it at all.
