See (info "(tramp) Remote programs")

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
   Starting with Emacs 26, ‘tramp-remote-path’ can be set per host via
connection-local variables, *Note (emacs)Connection Variables::.  You
could define your own search directories like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

tramp-remote-process-environment is not prepared to be set host
specific.

A "wildcard" for a host in tramp-connection-properties is nil instead of
the regexp, as the docstring of this variable tells you. An empty regexp
like "" would serve as well.
