Is it possible on my current backup TSM 6.3 server to do a test and tell a node to restore the data from the DR Media pool instead of using the current Onsite copy pool?

Yes - you have to mark all onsite tape as 'destroyed', and check in all offsite tapes.

Follow DR procedure and you will find in the procedure how to do this.

I have done is on live PROD systems MAKING sure that I could recover PROD quickly when needed. If you are not used to do this, I suggest don't do this on a live PROD system.
