Hi Jimmy
No. There is no Audio on the USB connector so you can't do it that way. Do it the old fashion would be a step backwards.
I see you are having issues with WSJTx. Have you tried using SliceMaster to get things working?
This video might help you out to get it working the way it was designed to work.

And I will add that with an "M" model, you do NOT need to run SSDR. You need to install it because that's how you get Cat and Dax, but once installed, just start Cat and Dax (after configuring, of course) by themselves and allow the "M" front panel to control aspects of the radio that wsjt-x cannot control (i.e. bandwidth, filters etc).0
