As the title says, is there a way to butcher a corpse that’s on an adjacent tile?

I’ve not tried a butchering rack yet, so maybe my answer lies there?

As far as I know, no, you can only butcher creatures which are on the tile under your character.  
The Butchering Rack functions more like a “tool”, like the forge or a crafting spot.
