use imac as a monitor. thunderbolt to dual dvi?

I have a imac 2011 2.7 i5. would like to use it as a monitor for a mac pro 2.8 or 3.1.

the macpro outputs dual dvi. the imac has thunderbolt.

is this possible through the dual-dvi to thunderbolt cable?

iMac, macOS Sierra (10.12.6), imac, macpro, ipads, iphones, ect.
