Would it be noticeable slower to load a database to a page that is on a different host than the page?

depends on the connection speed between your servers and how much data you are transfering, a matter of calculations.. Generally if the servers are on the same LAN/Switch network there won't be much difference, could actually be faster since some of the load is distributed..
