Can you connect by IP Address instead of named pipes when there are multiple instances on a server?

Yes, assuming the TCP/IP Net Library is enabled in the server and the client network utilities and firewalls between you and the server are configured to allow that traffic through.
We do it extensively as we have many domains that are not trusted to each other, so we are able to connect via IP:port or IP:InstanceName
10.13.0.168:MyInstance or 10.13.0.168:1839 (1839 is the port that this instance is configured to listen to for commands).
