If by "selecting config" you mean activating a user connection, you can't do 
that. Because nm-applet is not running. nm-applet is not just a GUI, but also  
implements a user settings service that provides configuration to NM when 
activation is requested. And when it's not running, no 
org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings D-Bus service is available.
Read http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManagerConfiguration about setting services.

If you only want to edit the data in user connections, you can do that via 
gconf-editor, gconftool-2 or manually in .gconf dir.
