If you have a jQuery element from which you want to fire an event you need the trigger method

var $t = jQuery('#idToElement');
$t.trigger('mousemove',['parameter1','parameter2']);

If you want to do this with pure javascript you need the createEvent function of the document object. You can find more about that here

AFAIK you cannot move the user's mouse pointer if that was the question.
It would be called "mousejacking" ;)

Not sure why you ask, but,
if your goal is to simulate a click on another element you could do:

$('#element_1').click(function(){
    $('#element_2').click();
});
