Mic-in to mic-in möglich?

I'm not sure where to ask but this place seems kind of what could answer my question. It's more about gaming, not music production but both are live I guess.

So im using an AT2035 with a pre-amp as a microphone on my pc. I installed virtual cable and VSThost to do all the sound processing via software. It takes the raw input from the sound card, puts it through a compressor, gate, etc. in realtime to the virtual cable output. The virtual cable output is my default microphone in windows. So if any sofware on my pc is using a mic signal, it's using the processed one. VST host is in auto-start mode, so it's always running when I turn on my pc. Also I got MicMute always running, so with a button press on my keyboard the mic is globally muted for every program.

Now my problem: I want this on my PS4 too

The thing is, I bought a USB sound card, plugged it into my PS4 and tried to use my mic with it. It picks everything up! Every lick of my lips(like no shit, it's a capacitor mic, duh). You can change the volume of the signal in the PS4 settings, but not the gate, etc. Buying a headset is not an option. I've got an ath-m50x plus this great mic, there is no going back!

So I'm looking for a cheap solution. I discovered that I can reassign the audio ports on my motherboard. So the mic-in on the backsite of my pc is now an audio-out. When I switch the routing in VSThost from the virtual cable to the new audio-out it actually works!(I plugged in my headphones to test)

TL;DR: So can I just buy a 3,5mm male-male cable and connect the motherboard mic-in(now an audio-out) with the USB soundcard mic-in on the PS4?

I've read about different voltages of line-in, line-out, mic-in, headphone out, etc. because they're made for devices with different impedance ratings and input sensitivities. But all I'm doing is routing a microphone signal(which is now going backwards/out of the mic-in) into another mic-in, so shouldn't I be fine? Would it work? Will the audio be clipping? What if I reduce the volume in the settings window of the device to like 10%?

Thanks!

Kann ich so zwar nicht versprechen , aber solange du den Pegel des Outputs nicht gerade nahe 100% fährst SOLLTE es klappen . Vergiss eines nicht : Es gibt nicht umsonst Line UND Mic-In , obwohl BEIDES "Stereo"-Eingänge sind . Unterschiede MUSS es von daher geben , wobei ich mir ziemlich sicher bis das ein Mic EINGANG selbst Strom"Ausgiebt" damit das Mic (Bei solchen ohne eigene Stromversorgung) funktionieren kann , ein Line-In macht das natürlich NICHT . Wenn besteht also eher die Gefahr das dein AUSGEBENDES Gerät (Also die USB-SoKa) geschädigt wird , nicht die PS4 .
