Dear community,
Does anyone know how to create a shortcut/hotkey in Mojave but just with "Control-Command" not an adicional letter, just "Control-Command" and that combination giving me an output?

It's not possible. Those are modifier keys.
What output do you want? Have you tried the Text section of the System/Keyboard/Text preference pane. Instead of Option+Command you can use some letter combination like xrat to add whatever text you want.
If you're looking to execute some function in an application try the System/Keyboard/Shortcuts/App Shortcuts preference pane.
A 3rd party solution to what you want to do would be to get Keyboard Maestro. It will let you do just about anything with any key or letter combination. I use it and have over 100 shortcuts I use to open files/apps, enter predetermined text, select menu options, etc.
Now that OT mentioned it, both VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop use modifier keys as a form of escape key if you don't have their respective tools installed in a guest. So I suppose it's possible, somehow.
Thanks for your answers.
Sadly, System/Keyboard/Shortcuts/App Shortcuts preference pane asks me for a specific letter in addition to "Control-Command".
I have installed a menu/status bar app that triggers an action every time I press "Control-Command". I discovered this by mistake because I have a Microsoft Mouse with a side button (for Windows menu) which triggers it every time I slide my finger over it.
So, I thought it would be handy to assign that "useless" button to other actions within Mojave, such as opening a Doc or creating a memo, something like that.
Thank you very much for your comments.
Best.
