    The machine has the four drivers (leadshine) and only three sets of connections XYZ used on the board, my next question would be if I plugged Mach3 cable into it should I be able to control the steppers without changing board or drivers.

    You have 4 axis so use the C axis for the slaved drive. Honestly wouldn't use 1 output for 2 drives if you have a spare output which you do.!!

    Yes this is common setup and you can control all drives/motors, just need mach setting up correctly and it will be fine.
