You can use ZMQ to control qtvcp screens remotely in principle. I have used it for iter-process comunication on one set up. axis has axis-remote.

Create a page about means and how to remote control LinuxCNC

There is this frontend:

[DISPLAY] DISPLAY = linuxcncrsh

It listen on TCP port 5007 and accept commands like 'set machine on' and 'set mdi g0x0'. No idea if it is only used for testing.
