Yes. You can use any mini-PC or server or whatsoever to run headless
with an X and x2go-server installation including the applications you
need. You connect via network ssh and have got a remote desktop. It is
even possible to run your remote desktop on a data center server and
access it with a thin client even when you are not at home.

This is also convenient for testing X in a virtual machine on a laptop
or separating several desktops via distinct VMs on a laptop, or use a
second login with a different user name on the same laptop. There is a
bunch of possibilities which are made quite easy with this tool.
