Thunderbolt isn't a networking technology, more of an extension to the PCIe system for expanding your computer, but funnelled through a cable rather than cards that slot into the motherboard.
You'd be better off just sharing the time machine backup drive from the iMac (connected via thunderbolt if possible), then use either a fast wireless network or wired ethernet to share it out.
