This is something I could've tried myself for years but never thought to test. Does anyone know offhand whether you can find the rare Tortimer's Island items (treasure chest, different colored wetsuits, etc.) via local co-op with two of your own 3DS consoles or does it have to be with other, long distance, players?

I do not think so, at the very least it must be very rare. I believe that all of the alternate wetsuits (other than the black and dark green ones) are exclusive to the Club Tortimer Island. I have encountered the silver axe on my own Tortimer Island but all of the other items are extremely rare. I got most of them by cycling through Club Tortimer before the hackers a long time ago. Your Tortimer Island wares are only generated once per day while using C.T you can island hop and get everything fairly quick! Sadly, its unsafe now.....

Figured as much, though disappointing nonetheless. Alas. Thank you for the answer!

Is it still possible to invite people to my town and trade items and stuff? I haven't kept up to date with 3DS so I have no idea what is possible anymore

No, Nintendo shut down 3DS and Wii U online servers on April 8th 2024 and unfortunately you can no longer invite other people to your town or trade with them but if you own multiple 3DSes and New Leaf game cartridges in your household you can invite your other mayors to your town via local multiplayer since that is separate from online servers.
