Is it possible to use eZ Find with the Java directory residing outside of the ezfind extension directory?
As a test, I moved the java directory outside of the Web root and ran "java -jar start.jar". Everything seemed to come up normally and solr even responded to searches from the site, but no search results are returned to the page.

You can install solr ("the eZFind java directory") outside of the eZ Publish installation, or even on a different server - all communication between the two parties is done via http calls.
You just need to set up appropriately config settings, eg: - solr.ini.append.php with the url where solr can be found listening- jetty xml and solrconfig.xml for the location of solr logs and data files
After moving solr to a different directory, I think you might have to reindex the whole site. Use updatesearchindexsolr.php for that.

One correction to
"After moving solr to a different directory, I think you might have to reindex the whole site. Use updatesearchindexsolr.php for that. "
This is not necessary, provided the Solr index does not get corrupted (example: Solr writing to it while moving/copying the index data)
