Can I connect my old MacBook Air (late 2008) as a second monitor to my other MacBook Air (early 2014)? If so, how do I do it?
Got a tip for us?

Not in an easy or conventional way.
If you wanted to take apart your macbook pro, you could find a driver board for the display model and connect it to that and connect the other macbook pro to the driver board via HDMI/DP/TB whichever connection the board has.
The other option is to get 3rd party software (for if both MBPs still run fine).
