Nope' that will not work, because those newer Mac's can not use Target Display Mode.
carefully read > Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support
If you get a new Mac mini, you will also need an external display.
If you mean to use as a monitor that's not supported. There are ways to do so but are nothing like using an actual monitor.
