Can I plug two dynamic mics into my computer

I would like to use my computer and a Bose radio to do portable Karaoke shows. I have two dynamic mics for singer input. I noticed that microstudio could be used for this purpose as well as Hoster. My problem is how do I connect the two microphones (cord type) to my computer. I don't have an external mixer. I connect the computer to the Bose by pluging into the headphone mini out jack on the computer and into the aux in red and white on the Bose. Really don't want alot of extra stuff to carry, just the min needed. Any thoughts?
Thanks
Bob

Two options off the top of my head.

Y-jack for the 2 mic inputs. (you would not have individual volume control on the mics)

Dual sound card. (You would have to use the soundcards software for individual volume control adding CPU/Memory overhead)

Small unpowered mixer. This would be my choice. You can get a small 2 channel mixer not much bigger than a paperback book.


Okay, that was 3 options.

You'll get your best sound quality using a small mixing board.
