So is there a way I can set SELinux to permissive, and still be secure while using Calc to connect remotely to a MySQL database?
There is a difference between "running selinux in enforcing mode" and "being secure". The second does not necessarily require or originate from the first.
Or is there a way to leave SELinux enforced while also using Calc to connect remotely to a MySQL database?
Yes. You can use setroubleshoot to set it up.
