Simplified, Netty is just a framework which handles the connection management (*) and passes the incoming data to decoder/encoder handlers provided by you. So as long as the your decoders/encoders do translate from/to the same binary protocol you can use any combination of client and server. You don't actually need to use netty at all.

(*) Netty is of course more than that, it provides out of the box some protocols already implemented, abstract handlers etc but still they are based on some existing protocol specification and are not specific to Netty version.
