sync email folders across platforms

Is it possible to sync "On My Mac" mailboxes across platforms? iMac & MacBook Pro. For example... I create an "On My Mac" folder for a current job. If I am working on my laptop and move an email to the folder "Job" will it sync over to my iMac where there is a folder "Job"? I want to keep the email available on both platforms. Thank You in advance.

iMac 27", macOS 10.13

I imagine that having the folder "On My Mac" sync with a location not on your Mac would kind of defeat the purpose of the location "On My Mac".

Why not create a folder within the IMAP folders such as your "Job" folder and use that both locally and synced with other devices?
