You can probably make that work, but it may take a little effort. Jsf
Rendering (generating of html) is independent of form value
processing.
You could create a jsf component that didn't output any tags in the
rendering stage but still worked with the submitted values of the
externally-generated html inputs, so long as you could somehow
associate the clientId of the component with the actual id generated
by the external content.
Probably would look something like this on your page template:
<my:customComponent forInputId="bbb">
<!-- start externally generated content -->
<input id="bbb" name="bbb" type="text" value=""/>
<!-- end externally generated content -->
</my:customComponent>
