A toilet has to be vented otherwise you are trying to force liquid against the air in the drain and it is pulling against a vacuum. It will never flush right.

I would need to know how the pipe you want to use is set. I will guess that it might be horizontal? There is a saddle clamp available that could possible be used. A section of pipe could be cut out and an inlet added. Rubber couplers would be used to connect the two. You also have to consider how and where a toilet would be vented. Is there a vent behind where you are planing to install the toilet and if not can one be added?
