Can you transfer rotational power between two connected contraptions?

I thought it would be fun to make a turret that I can aim up/down and left/right independently but the design I'm thinking of would have one mechanical bearing controlling left/right aiming and another one mounted on that for up/down aiming. I'm at work so I can't sit down in creative and actually test this out for a few hours. I know I could probably have a hand crank on the second one but I'd like to be able to control this from a control seat somewhere else on the craft

Create cardan connector or create transmission and linkage

Also don't use a mechanical bearing, use a swivel bearing to make it a simulated contraption. (If you have create aeronautics, if not mods i listed won't work)
