Wanted to ask if you can use a laptop as an external GPU so can connect to another PC and thus can use the performance of the laptop.

No, because the transmission between two devices is many times slower than there could be an increase in performance.

Theoretically yes, but not as you imagine.

You could outsource calculations to the GPU from the laptop, but that's not something that would get you anything.
