MelonDS advertises

Does this work only between emulators, or can I connect from my PC to my 3ds like that?
Never used MelonDS before so I'm kinda confused.

In truth this would be the section dedicated to the emulators FOR and ON NDS, not OF the NDS ("forum dedicated to emulation, homebrew games & applications FOR the Nintendo DS").

..can I connect from my PC to my 3ds like that?

In truth this would not be the section dedicated to 3DS, but to the DS.

Despite these premises, it may be that some kind passerby will answer your question...

True, but asking in the PC section isn't going to get people who are experienced with NDS

This question is about DS emulation, isn't that what the DS emulation forums would be about?

In order not to have to repeat what I have already written and discuss endlessly...I pretend to give up...so I am guilty (guilty of innocence)!

We are all anxiously waiting for someone to answer your question...

Only way would be to test. If you can, open two emulator windows with one booting into the DS's main menu, (where you can select Download Play) and the other booting into a game that supports download play. Then, in the other window, go into Download Play once the other window's game is transmitting. I'm pretty sure that MelonDS isn't able to do PC-2-DS Wireless play, but it probably can, idk. Try asking the devs who made MelonDS.

I went and did that, and basically its hard to implement and isn't a priority. It supposedly supports PC-PC play though (on the same PC)
