Yes, you should be able to do so just set you host to be the host ip of the mysql db..

if you talk about your DB on hostrocket than I assume you cannot connect from other machines because of security issues.
You should check out with HR for it.
IMHO

yes, you can do it.

Jusat change "localhost" in the connect statment to your sites url

I did that, no go so I asked little hostrocket and they said you have to provide them a database and username/password for them to allow remote access, i was quite surprised but it worked.
