Can you quarantine fish by using one of those plastic/acrylic/glass containers with holes that dips into your main tank and have the fish live in there for a few weeks? Or do they have to have their own tank because diseases are transmitted merely by sharing the same water?

You need to define what you expect from your QT and then you'll know what'll work and what wont.
If this is what you mean....
Three-Way Breeder, Boxed
...then it's too tiny in the first place.
Ideally, pick up a 40 Breeder to use as a QT.....biggest cheap option there is at the PetCo sales and it's a great shape for QT. A 30 Breeder, 20 Long or 15 Gallon would be my next choices in descending size. Unless you're only QT'ing TINY TINY fish like neon gobies, I would not go smaller.
