P2419H, daisy chain?

Is it possible to daisy chain two P2419H monitors together?

    Daisy chain is not possible because the P2419H does not have a DP video OUT port. The P2419H only has the following video in ports =
    HDMI
    DP
    VGA

    Versus say the U2419H which does have the DP video OUT port.

    Thank you Chris.

    My laptop only has the following ports - HDMI port, one USB C, and two USB A.  Would I be able to run the two monitors with the laptop by connecting them separately to the laptop, one via the HDMI port and the other either via a Displayport to USB C connector or Displayport to USB A using a USB A to Displayport adapter?

    Thank you.

    The Laptop has its AC power adapter connected to it, lid is closed =


    Laptop USB Type-C out port --> USB Type-C to DP cable --> #1 P2419H DP in port
    Laptop HDMI out port --> HDMI to HDMI cable --> #2 P2419H HDMI in port
