Unless the laptop has a VGA In port, then no.

If the computers are networked you could run Remote Desktop if your OS supports it or you could run VNC but you'd probably have to have a monitor on your desktop machine to set it up. If you use either option you can forget about most games until you get a new monitor but you'll at least be able to use your computer.
