You can physically connect a USB device to the HD+ using a USB Female-Female coupler (such as
http://www.ebay.com/itm/290923812039...84.m1439.l2649) in conjunction with the BN-supplied USB cable. But in order to use the USB-attached device you will also need driver software support in the OS for that device-type. CM10.x ROM kernel has built-in support for some USB devices: I've successfully used USB flash drives, keyboard, and mouse with my HD+ running CM10.1 (on SD card), you can browse the XDA forums HD+ threads (e.g.,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...2307585&page=6) to see what other USB devices are supported.

The only other way that I can think of would be if you could somehow hook the USB mobile internet modem to a router. Then you could just connect the HD+ using normal wi-fi. I don't know enough about mobile broadband to know if this is even feasible but, somehow, I doubt it.

Folks have done this using a combination of some particular router models and (free) aftermarket router firmwares such as Tomato-USB or DD-WRT, you can browse TomatoUSB/DD-WRT forums for more info.
