Is it possible to use a laptop as a second monitor for a desktop?

As the title says, I wonder if I can use my laptop as a second monitor for my desktop.

Does your laptop have a video in port? Most do not. so it's highly unlikely that you can use the laptop as a second monitor.

It has a VGA and HDMI port.
How do I know if they are video in or out?

If they were inputs, you'd probably know it as very few are. Your manual should tell you for sure, but 99% sure they're outputs.
