My mediawiki installation is on a hosting service, Joyent, which does not
provide the latex tools necessary for the Math extension enabled via Texvc.

But, there is an online Tex render, CodeCogs, that I use for my blog.  See
this post:
http://backspaces.net/tutorials/32/math-on-the-web

The blog post simply creates a dynamic image which I render with an img HTML
tag.  The img contains this url as its source:
http://www.forkosh.dreamhost.com/mathtex.cgi?{c=\sqrt{\alpha^2+\beta^2}}
..you can cut/paste this into your browser to see what it looks like.

Is there a way for me to also use this online latex rendering within
mediawiki?

Basically this translates into being able to generate an img tag within
mediawiki which looks something like:
img
src="http://www.codecogs.com/eq.latex?\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{-x^{2}}dx=\sqrt{\pi}";

Thanks!
