Yes. All of CC's "connections" work with calibre libraries. The Wireless Device and Content Server connections access the calibre library through the calibre program itself. CC's Cloud Connection accesses a folder containing the calibre library. That folder is in the cloud or, if using the "Local Library" cloud connection, in device memory (SD card or main memory).
There is no CC function that can access folders containing books.
If accessing your library in Dropbox is something you will do frequently then you might want to set things up so calibre keeps the Dropbox copy up-to-date. There are several ways to do that. Ask in the calibre forum if you want to discuss the pros and cons of the various methods.

sorry, I dunno why, but I was just looking for my books folder so I could link the books I wanted...didn't realize I'd have to directly connect to another version of the program first.

I don't understand the "connect to another version of the program first" part. All that is required is a copy of calibre's library in Dropbox. No "connection" with another program is needed.
