I really wonder if this is possible to program , As I would love to have this option enable.

Like 4 mac mini together to create the ultimate desktop.

Yes it’s possible. It’s not worth it other than a fun project.

After all there are rpi clusters running

Many softwares already have distributed computing solutions. But it doesn’t create a single powerful desktop, it only subdivide some tasks between several machines.

Not in a way OP probably imagines. Cluster software allows work to be distributed over multiple computers, but the work items have to be packaged/programmed in a special way. This is very far from two computers acting as one.
