Yes. You would need to purchase a KVM (keyboard, video mouse) switch. Most will only switch one monitor between two PCs, meaning you would need to purchase two, but some are available to switch two or more displays at once.

∙ 14y agoIf your monitor has multiple inputs, than yes. However, most monitors do not, and even if they did, you would not be able to view both at once.
You can get a device called a KVM switch that allows you to use one (K)eyboard, (V)ideo monitor, and (M)ouse with multiple computers... even if the monitor only has a single video input. You press a button on the KVM switch (or sometimes use a particular key combination on the keyboard) to switch between computers. This still doesn't allow you to see (or control) both computers at the same time, though.

Check this product out at Switch Boxu can't connect one monitor in 2 computer.but u can use the monitor disply of other computer through one third party software like VNC Yes we can connect two computer with one monitor. but we cannot connect online with network programYou can connect two computers to one monitor with a KVM (keyboard-video-mouse) switch. Many KVM switches will allow you to connect 4 or 5 computers to one monitor, one keyboard, and one mouse. Have each computer selected when booting to ensure that the computer registers the keyboard and mouse, before changing to another computer. The computers will be connected to the network through their own cables and won't be affected by the KVM switch. Your network programs will work normally.If your monitor has two inputs then most likely you do not need any KVM switch. Just connect both PCs on each port; switching between comps is done usually by front knob. If there is only one input on monitor then you will need a KVM. Before buying this piece of hardware check your graphic cards outputs on each PC. These days most of the monitors have one DVI and one analog (D-SUB) input. While D-SUB is somehow unique, there are different versions of the DVI - DVI-I; DVI-I and DVI-A (check on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface).ANSWERAccessing two or more systems using one monitor can be done:using Remote AccessX11 servicesRemote Access will cause the console/desktop of the remote to be shown on the local monitor and give mouse,keyboard controlX11 (see link below) will give the same access to multiple systems at the same time each within its own window/frame.
