Nope an iMac can not be used as a monitor.

Well you can use an EyeTV TV input thing can show TV on a Mac, so it kinda can. But not a general purpose monitor.

A Mac mini with a monitor would work.

Using something like Apple Remote Access, yes.

But connecting the iMac directly as an external monitor? Unfortunately, no.
