Is it possible to have a server with multiple cn=config templates (for
other servers) in a non cn=config context and then "translate" them
into cn=config on the consumer side using a bootstrap config and
olcsyncrepl?

Yes, but it's a bit tricky and didn't work in earlier releases. It involves
using back-relay on the provider to remap the incoming searchbase to the
alternate locations.

I have the provider side working now with:
###
database ldif
directory ldap-rndng/config.d
suffix cn=template
overlay rwm
rwm-rewriteEngine on
rwm-rewriteContext searchEntryDN
rwm-rewriteRule "(.+)?,cn=template$" "$1" ":"
###
Putting the specific cn=config dit under cn=template and making a sub
search with base cn=config,cn=template now gives the correct result,
BUT how do i make the same "rewriting" for the searchbase on the
consumer side?
It fails with:
olcSyncrepl: value #0: Base DN "cn=config,cn=template" is
not within
the database naming context.
failed to add syncinfo
config error processing olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config: Base DN
"cn=config,cn=template" is not within the database naming context
