How can i rig up a remote start switch in the kj like mechanics use to start a vehicle? Note: I am not talking about wireless remote starter.

You can rig one to crank the engine since the starter has only 1 wire but I'd not want to start it taht way since many things need to get power also to start and stay running.

If i had the key in the 'on' position and cranked the starter with the switch would that work?

You need to tap into the Auto Shut Down relay to do that,it cuts power to the injectors and fuel pump.
