Can you install remote start in a manual transmission?

Yes, but it requires you to leave the car in neutral. You need to bypass the clutch interlock switch. You either need to interface a factory neutral safety switch (some manual cars have a switch, some don't) or w/ the ebrake. That way it won't try to start unless the ebrake is on or the car in neutral. No reputable shop will touch

That last sentence should say: no reputable shop will touch it because of liability.
