In this case, to skip the security queue and considering Cathay's counter at the departure hall is closed 75 minutes before departure (which I might not be able to reach there by the deadline in light of the short connection time), could I just collect my boarding pass directly at the departure gate on BRU-> HKG, without going to the departure hall to collect the boarding pass?
If by "Departure Hall" you mean going landside, I would advise against that. You would need to walk quite a bit, then clear security again.
As Oliver said: Walk from A to B, you will not go through security, just passport control. People are managing the queue. If you are short on time, talk to them, and they will let you skip the queue. Try checking in online in the app, there is free wifi in BRU. And +1 on checking with the gate agent that your luggage is checked through.
