You will need to leave the internal display mounted and connected as the systems SMC logic is dependent on the sensors held within it.
As far as using an external display that is possible! You’ll need an adapter depending on what the display offers. As an example: HDMI to miniDP, or VGA to miniDP.

Thank you. Ive requested to the repair man to find an actual replacement monitor. I asked that question to see all of my options. I appreciate your information.

When I was removing the screen monitor to install a hard drive I cut through some crucial wiring in the monitor and it now has an awful one inch vertical dead zone. The repair man tried the screen on another imac and the damage is just in the monitor.
