It seems like it should, since it's a self buff that augments your hits, but it's not clear.

External link →No. Corrupting Fever is similar to a Herald, in that the skill does two things:
A Mirage Archer isn't you and doesn't have the buff, so the skill never notices it hitting things, because it's not looking at the archer, it's looking at you.
Just for the sake of clarification, when the CF buff is up it is sufficient to hit enemies (with any skill) to apply the debuff, right? It does not have to be a life-spending skill?
Life-spending part only comes into play to refresh the buff on “you”.
Correct.
it's looking at you.
Does it gaze into my eyes?
Yes. Intensely.
So... Mirage Archers are distinctly separate entities from us? Sort of like a totem? Does this mean if I use ice bite support + mirage archer support linked to a bow skill gem while I have 10 frenzy charges, the mirage archer will not get the X to Y added cold damage per frenzy charge from ice bite? Is it possible for mirage archers to gain frenzy (or any other kind of) charges?
The Mirage Archer cannot gain frenzy charges and would not benefit from them if it did. It does not use it's own skill, it uses your skill, just like a totem, so your stat modifiers that affect that skill are applicable.
