Humidity is going to be the main point as nepenthes prefer ambient above 60, though there are some nepenthes native to Australia mirabilis would be a good start and although tenax is native I wouldn't suggest it as I believe it is finnicky both of them are native to north eastern australia where it is warm and humid year round. If you can look up your temperatures monthly and average humidity start looking at small towns where nepenthes are native in Australia, India anywhere where it is dry and hot and match up climates, you can use inaturalist and look up nepenthes to see where they live and compare the monthly weather where they live to where you live, you'll want to look for the same latitude and remember coastal areas are warmer.

For instance madagascariensis lives in this town and the weather is as follows though the humidity is above 70% all year round.

Certainly, though you may have to bring them inside during cold or extremely warm weather. Look at the plant requirements and then compare to your local climate.
