You can do this. Here's the help for the run_workload.sh command:

usage: run_workload.sh -c <number of customers> -d <duration of test> -u
<number of users>
other options:
-a <pgsql>
-b <database parameters>
-f <scale factor. (default 500)>
-h <database host name. (default localhost)>
...

"-h" is the setting that points toward another server. You will also
need to setup the postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf on the system to allow
remote connections, the same way as this is normally done with Postgres.
