Use the server's Threads property, ie:

    TList *List = IdTCPServer1->Threads->LockList();
    try
    {
        for(int x = 0; x < Threads->Count; ++x)
        {
            TIdPeerThread *Thread = (TIdPeerThread*) List->Items[x];
            // use Thread->Connection as needed ...
        }
    }
    __finally
    {
        IdTCPServer1->Threads->UnlockList();
    }

That depends on what those threads are going to be doing in the first place.
Please provide more details.
