Unfortunately this is not possible. Input Director is the only one that does this IIRC.

Mirror input - Broadcast mouse gestures and/or keyboard input to all computers simultaneously

It is Windows-only though, sadly.

By the way, Barrier is no longer in development so you may want to try Deskflow or Input Leap.

https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow
https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap

Both are compatible with Barrier client/server so you can try on one of your computers.
