My question is this, can I implement a "clustered" environment on single server so I can take advantage of the segmented data? I have a TON (96gb) of RAM and plenty of SSD disk space available...
Yes. One Solr instance can have many cores, and you can even run a distributed index without SolrCloud, with some extra effort.
You can even run SolrCloud on a single server. The embedded ZK is probably acceptable for that kind of install. It won't have any redundancy, of course.
The minimum fault-tolerant SolrCloud install is three servers -- because ZK requires three. For the minimum, only two of those servers would need to run Solr.
