For a small project, I've started working on Neural networks as a regression tool, but I am still confused about possibilities of some variants. Here's what I am aiming to do:

 - I have multiple input data time series $X(t)=[X_1(t), X_2(t), X_3(t),X_4(t)]$, and multiple target data time series which I want to modelize $Y(t)=[Y_1(t), Y_2(t)]$. All data are available for training.
 - I aim to train my model/regression on an interval $[t_0,t_n]$, and then be able to apply it on a larger different interval where I supposedely
 - I know that relation between my $Y$ and $X$ are non-linear, but also that in need to take in account lag, or inertia. For example, $Y_1(t)$ is dependant of $X_1([t-dt_1,t])$ and $X_2([t-dt_2,t])$. All $dt_n$ are different, but I have an approximate idea of how 'far' I need to reach. 

With this in mind, through some research I have been guided to focus on Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks. I aim to use TensorFlow/Keras to work on this. However, after some reading, I'm getting confused with those solutions. Many people present them in prediction applications, which supposedely means that those networks use data from a time interval (either $X$ or $Y$ in my case) on an interval $[t_0,t_n]$ to predict $Y(t_{n+1})$. But my objective is to use $X([t_0,t_n])$ to modelize $Y([t_0,t_n])$ (on the same time interval). I am getting confused with this notion of "prediction".

Therefore, are RNN and LSTM networks appropriate solutions for my multivariate time series regression/model project? Or am I already going the wrong way?

As a beginner in this field, any reference or link to ressources/tutorial, or demos is also welcome.
