You have to sim 1961 first which is bizarre and then you get stuck with a bunch of coaches you wouldn't want when the team is finally created.
You can start the 1962 historical season, and you will have the 1962 Mets.

If you mean start the 1962 season and do the expansion draft yourself, then you would have the same pool of players and your only difference would be trading some players between your Mets and the Colt 45s. The game does not offer that option, but I suppose you could use commissioner mode to move some players from one team to the other.

If you want anyone available to the 1962 Mets, you can start a 1962 season with an inaugural draft.

None of these options require you to sim 1961 first.
