lnav has some support for tailing files on remote hosts -- https://lnav.org/2021/05/03/tailing-remote-files.html

It works by uploading a stub that is an "actually portable executable" to the remote over ssh. lnav then talks to the stub to sync files back to the local host. I don't know the scale of the hosts or files, but if they're not too big, it might work fine.
