I don't have a Switch Online subscription, and have no intention of getting one, so the only way (aside from physical LAN meetups) that I can get fruit that isn't native to my island is to use Nook Miles Tickets and visit random islands.

This seems to have worked to get me coconuts and pears, but despite many Random Islands I haven't found any of the other 3 fruits.

Most guides and sources say that you can get random fruits from these islands, but a few individuals have said that you will only ever find one extra fruit this way. I've looked online for confirmation that this is how it works, but haven't found a solid answer.

Am I actually able to get all 6 fruit types just from Nook Miles Tickets?

No, unfortunately you'll not be able to get all 6 fruit types without using online services. Currently, the game will let you get only 4 different fruits with local play:

  1. Your native fruit
  2. The fruit your mom sent via e-mail
  3. Coconuts on mystery islands (using Nook-Miles Tickets)
  4. Your sister fruit on the Sister Fruit Mystery Island

PS: It's not possible to know which is your sister fruit until you visit the island for the first time. But then, when you visit this same island again, it will always be the same sister fruit you found the first time.

PS²: There are rumours you can receive different fruit from villagers as a mail gift, but I personally never experienced this.

Yes, although it's rare. The game is designed and balanced to be able to fully experience everything (except the obvious multiplayer), without a subscription. nook islands will have different fruit on them as special islands. Most often you will only get your native fruit, but I was able to get all except 1 fruit through nook islands only. Be prepared to spend a lot of miles jumping to various islands though.
