I heard the Nautical Institute has assessments in the new system where the onboard DP console is in simulator mode. Does “simulator mode” sea time count for people with the old books? Meaning can I get DP sea time while at the dock using simulator mode?

I don’t think so. I think people using the old system are bound by the old rules.

I can see some practical exercises or assessments where limited value can be gained, or demonstrated on a simulator, but gaining actual sea time which essentially is a measure of “experience” makes absolutely no sense. In that case, everyone should become a parent from watching porn.
