I want to take audio from an older iMac to a new Imac 27 that has no audio in Jack. Can I use an adapter cable with a pin jack from the headphone out jack of the old iMac into a thunderbolt Jack on the new iMac 27?

Sorry, but no. An adapter will not change the functionality of the headphone audio out port on the iMac.
