I recently read that it is possible to define the Log4Net Config XML in defining this file in a class attribute.

<Assembly: log4net.Config.XMLConfigurator(ConfigFile:="Log4Net.Config.xml", Watch:=True)>

How can I define this file using only pure VB.Net code without using Attribute technique ?

Example (this is only textuals examples)

log4net.Config.OpenFile("Log4Net.Config.xml")
log4net.OpenConfigFile("Log4Net.Config.xml")
log4net.InitLoggingConfigFile("Log4Net.Config.xml")

The configuration's file already exists. I search only the code that read it to configure logging.

To solve your issue, you can use XmlConfigurator.Configure() function

XmlConfigurator.Configure(new System.IO.FileInfo(args[0]));

that is explained on Apache Net4Net site
