Basically, can squid be the endpoint for TCP connections, and establish a new
outgoing TCP connection to the destination server?

That's not really transparent if the client knows that Squid is the
endpoint. Transparent means that the client just does business as usual, so:
Do you mean that the client is unaware of (and does not have to be
configured for) the Squid server? If so, yes, of course it can be fully
transparent, ie the client connects to an external IP but it gets passed
through Squid. See "intercept" and "tproxy" in the docs. Both of course
require that you are in control of the network from which the clients
connect to the internet!
