I wouldn't recommend machines participating in the same site residing in separate data centers. Intermachine communication and network latency would cause significant problems. If you want to have a standby deployment ready, set up identical ArcGIS Enterprise deployment and use the WebGIS DR tool to replicate data and content to the standby site. Keep in mind that it doesn't support restoring a backup to an environment that uses different storage types, so if your content is on the file system on your primary site, it needs to be on the file system in your standby site.
