You have to have some known address to even make the connection to the phone. For instance, an IP Address that is known by your current network or can be found on a public network. This address could be static or dynamic and you would have to know it before you can attempt the connection.
Someone could try to take two phones, install Remote Desktop on both, then connect them to a WiFi network and attempt to make a connection between the devices. That would be the first step that I can think of...

Actually, I would think if something like this were developed, it could be done by simply knowing the mobile number. The initiating phone could send a specifically formatted text which could be intercepted by the software on the phone to connect to. It could then respond with the IP address needed to connect to it.
It would be a similar algorithm to those used for silent GPS phone tracking.
