Yes, this is the right syntax.
And don't forget to configure proxy_send_timeout and
proxy_read_timeout at the same time. Otherwise you're only limiting
the connection establishing time.

NGINX subrequests do not have timeout mechanism themselves and they do
not involve any socket operations on their own. NGINX subrequests are
C function calls per se.
So lua_socket_connect_timeout has nothing to do with ngx.location.capture*.
