Is it possible it connect two iMacs together?

I currently have my iMac connected to a monitor. I was wondering if I can connect two iMacs together to use the monitor as a second monitor and the extra storage? My current iMac is running on Catalina 10.15.7. The second iMac is a newer computer, but I don't remember the OS version.

Some old iMacs introduced between 2009 and mid 2014 support Target Display Mode.


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


However, Apple added the restrictions that

  • The iMac acting as a Target Display has to be running High Sierra or earlier (Catalina is too recent)
  • The video source has to be another Mac
  • The other Mac has to have been introduced in 2019 or earlier
  • The other Mac has to be running Catalina or earlier


That means that no current or recent Mac supports using ANY iMac as a Target Display.
