Ive gotten hold of an intel nuc from around 2014, is it possible to use it for self hosting cloud services (audio streaming, ip security cam fotage reciving and storage, photo storage) or is it more suitable as an emulation box?

It should be fine. Look at the minimum requirements for the services you want to run and cross reference them to the specs of your Intel nuc.

The three things that will limit you are your CPU, GPU, and the amount of RAM
