No. Even older Mac's required output from a Mini DisplayPort or DisplayPort to output a signal to the older iMac mini-DisplayPort connector.
With the newer Lightning connector iMac's, only another iMac with a Lightning connector can output video to a Lightning iMac.- Answered by Ron B from The Colony
