No... this is not an old school method of port scanning. At its basic its checking to see if the port is accepting requests and for the moderately more advanced, banner grabbing. a telnet client has no ability to "scan".
As for telnet, it does allow you to issue raw commands to some services that accept. for example, if after youve connected to a webserver, you can issue a command like GET / HTTP/1.1 and hit enter twice which will retrieve if i recall both the webpage html and the response headers.
