    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A (Preview) platform. Happy to answer your question.

    No, Azure AD Connect is not designed to work with Azure AD B2C. Consider using the Azure AD Graph API for user migration. See the User migration guide for details.

    It is no longer limited to Azure AD Graph API.
    Microsoft Graph API "beta" endpoint now supports creating local and social Azure AD B2C users.
    It would look something like: 

    POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users  
  
{  
  "accountEnabled": true,  
  "displayName": "John Smith",  
  "identities": [  
    {  
      "signInType": "emailAddress",  
      "issuer": "{tenant}.onmicrosoft.com",  
      "issuerAssignedId": "john.smith@example.com"  
    }  
  ],  
  "givenName": "John",  
  "surname": "Smith"  
  "passwordProfile": {  
        "password": "Password123",  
        "forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": false     
   },  
  "passwordPolicies": "DisablePasswordExpiration, DisableStrongPassword"  
}
