I was wondering if the outside unit of an Air Transfer type heat pump
could be put in a small greenhouse during the winter so the air around
it would be warmer during the day?

Or maybe even put the outside unit in a small enclosure and run vents
from the house to it so that when the heat pump is warming or cooling
the house it would also be warming or cooling the air around the
outside unit?

Would this even help at all in keeping the electric use down?

No. When heating, the air around the compressor is cold, not warm. Vice
versa when cooling.
