Hello,
I have two MacBook Pro : MacBook Pro (2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) and MacBook Pro (2017, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports). I want to use one of the MacBooks as an extended monitor.
Can someone tell me if its possible to achieve that and how ?
MacBook Pro
Not possible. There is no video in port. Use the correct tool for the job, get an external monitor.

BobTheFisherman is correct. MacBook pro cannot be used as an additional display due to no display inputs.
In addition, the 2020 MacBook Pro models and beyond no longer support the use of ANY Mac as an external display.
You can use an adapter to your HD TV set, if you don't want to buy another display.
Ok let me add here: I do have add on USB-C to VGA multiport adapter, does it help ?

No. There is no VGA input port on your Mac.
