Default Converting Mac Pro Intel Machine into PCIe Chassis?

Is there anyway to convert a Mac Pro Intel machine as a PCIe chassis (only) to be controlled by a mac mini???....To control Pro Tools HD3 with a mac mini, without having to buy a magnum or other external chassis.....

There is always a way but it seems so much easier and stable to just get a chassis

It seems to me that you really only want to put that Mac Pro into a closet or some other faraway place. You can! Just boot it up and start screen sharing from your Mac Mini.
