terminal 8/ new Xwindows session

hi everyone...
simple question,,,
if I open a new Xwindows session on terminal 8 would it be possible to hook my laptop to a desktop computer platformed with linux and run an alternate session from the desktop on my laptop (on terminal 8 ) ......?
is this impossible, impractical or too far fetched or will it work?
