As @hardillb says, react-native-paho-mqtt only supports WebSocket because React Native itself doesn't support raw TCP out of the box. That said if you could write a wrapper to wrap https://github.com/PeelTechnologies/react-native-tcp in an API that looks like a WebSocket, you could pass your wrapper to react-native-paho-mqtt like this - theoretically that'd work, albeit a bit messily.

The Paho JavaScript client only supports MQTT over WebSockets because it is intended to be used in the browser.

You could look at the mqtt package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/mqtt) on npm which can be used natively or in the browser and is capable of both MQTT over Websockets and native MQTT, assuming the underlying JavaScript sandbox will allow full TCP sockets.
