This was discussed here some years ago, and I think the answer was that it can be done, but not via the Monitor app. You will have to set up a VNC connection over USB. Quite a few people found that bVNC worked particularly well. I think this is the thread with the details:

I'm not sure if it works with the current firmware, but there's no reason why it shouldn't.
