Can your Acurite to HA add-on be used to talk to an RPi with the RTL stick that is not the HA machine? That is, in order to receive the sensor signal, I need to have the RTL dongle in a location that is remote relative to the machine running HA. Is this currently possible?

Actually, That is exactly how I used to run this code. I had just the basic scripts running on an old linux machine, and pushed it to home assistant via MQTT. But you can't run this add on as is on another machine...I dont think.

I am not sure I have the scripts around anymore, but let me see if I do. I may also be able to write up a quick guide.

I know this is an older thread but I have my rtlsdr dongle plugged into my NAS, running linux in docker, rtl_433 running in said linux docker, Mqtt broker on my RPI4 running HomeAssistantOS, sending data from linux docker through MQTT to HA where I had to listen for data coming through and like @thejeffreystone said use ID's to create entities. If you need help still I can see what I can do to help you as well.
