When others are spectating your 'mech/cockpit in a match after they have already died,, are they able to see your in-game F9-enabled FPS display? Tried a quick Google search but came up empty. TIA!

yes and no. what they see is their F9 info but as they see the info they see the position coordinates of where your mech is in the game.

Now I'm more confused. That did not make any sense, sorry.

F9 is made up of 3 sets of numbers.. coordinates, FPS and Ping. The spectator sees his own FPS and Ping, but only sees the coordinates of the player he is spectating. ie, you the spectator would not see the other player's FPS and Ping.

Your F9 display gives location in an X, Y, Z format.
Lets say that you are at 15, 32, and 79

If someone spectates you, they would see your location at 15, 32, 79.
This is because as the spectator, they too, are inside the same space you are in.
They are in your seat, in your head.
