No, it is not possible, Kibana can only connects to one Elasticsearch cluster.

What you can do is to use Cross-cluster Search, you would still have your Kibana connected to your main cluster, but you would be able to search on the data on another cluster.

Check this [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-cross-cluster-search.html) explaining what Cross Cluster Search is and the steps to configure it.
