NetworkManager does not have a command-line interface to add/remove 
connections. You can bring up/down wired connections from the 
command-line, but that's about it. Wireless connections require access 
to the Gnome keyring for the WEP/WPA passphrase, which isn't supported 
by "nmcli" (the command-line tool).

I'm sure Dan Williams would be open to patches implementing support if 
you care to add it. ;)
