I've seen many examples on how to create a workflow to archive (copy/delete) items from one list to another but those only ever talk about within the same web application.

Is it possible to create a workflow that can archive/move (copy/delete) list items from one web application to a different one?

Any ideas or information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Your best bet is to probably use a web service to accomplish this.  Which version of Nintex Workflow are you using?  I was able to accomplish this in Nintex Workflow 2013 using these posts as a guide:

Call web service from Nintex Workflow - To Copy List item between Site Collections

How do I copy a list item to an identical list in a different web application?
