No, this is not going to work.

You may check whether the machines support Intel AMT in your UEFI/BIOS.
It provides a feature called SOL (SerialOverLan) with that you can route
the serial output to some other machine.

Otherwise you will need some PCI/Serial card for your desktop/server
machines or for notebooks there are mini PCIe cards if you have such a slot.
