dual imac desktops used as monitors for mac mini

Hello, I currently use 2 older iMac desktops as a dual monitor setup using Thunderbolt cable to connect each imac. I'm considering buying a new Mac Mini as an upgraded processor.


My question is: Can I use the 2 iMac desktops as a dual monitor setup for the Mac Mini? Thank you


One of my iMac is 2013 and the other is a 2014

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15

No sorry, none of the newer Mac's support Target Display Mode.

carefully read > Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support


If you are thinking of purchasing a new Mac Mini or Mac Studio, then you will also need an external display for it.
