Are you asking whether you would be monitoring a user's action who is
on a physical console or are you asking for a new graphical desktop
for the logged-in user within Cockpit?

The first one is probably not possible without the user's consent.
You'd need them to be running some screen-sharing software such as a
VNC or SPICE server and connect to that.

As for a *new* graphical desktop, it's probably possible for cockpit
to initiate a desktop session on the remote machine and implement a
SPICE client in the Cockpit console. That seems like a lot of work for
a dubious proposition, though. What is the use-case?
