This is what I do:

1. Quadrangulate the garment in MD.
2. Export the garment from MD as OBJ.
3. Import the OBJ into Daz Studio. 
4. Use Transfer Utility to rig to figure (not strictly necessary for dForce, I believe).
5. Add dForce Dynamic Surface Modifier to garment.
6. Simulate.

SickleYield has a Youtube Channel with lots of tutorials on Daz Studio topics.  There is a series on using Marvelous Designer with Daz3D stuff.

You have probably tried this but some people prefer to import the posed DAZ character (as an avatar) into MD, drape the clothing there and then export the clothing OBJ file back to DAZ Studio where it is positioned on the pre-posed character just as it was when exported to MD. Of course, there is no scope for adjustments within DAZ Studio using this method but you can always re-pose and re-drape in MD.

I believe @barbult has experimented with both methods.

To answer the OP, you can't use Dforce with Marvelous Designer. One sims cloth in Studio, the other is a virtual sowing room, with draping.

The mesh you have imported into studio (just like any mesh), can have a dforce modifier attached to it; this is under the Simulation Settings tab > menu > dforce > Dforce Modifer: Dynamic Surfaces addon
