Yes Thunderbolt 3 and 4 are interchangeable, you can use Thunderbolt 3/4 to Migrate and for Target Disk Mode.

see > Adapters for the Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, or USB-C port on your Mac - Apple Support


No if you are wanting to use the 2017 iMac as a Display for the M2 Mac mini in Target Display Mode.
