New Apple Studio Display as 2nd monitor for a 27" iMac

I have a iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019). Is there any way I can use the New Apple Studio Display as 2nd monitor. Are there any options to accomplish two monitors with my iMac? Used to run 2 or 3 monitors on my pre Mac PC's and loved the functionality for concurrent tasks.

Can iMac 2020 or iMac 2011 be the second monitor of Mac Studio 2023 ? I have two iMacs: iMac 2011 & iMac 2020 Recently I bought a Mac Studio with M2 Ultra and Studio Display. Is there anyway to make my iMac (any of them) as the second monitor of my Mac Studio? I did my research online, and it seems like it's not possible. But I found it's interesting that my Mac Studio mouse can control iMac 2020 but no files can be dragged into the iMac—which I think maybe there is a way to make 2020 iMac into a second monitor?? Thanks
