Another tree that you could use as an indoor tree that looks a little like a conifer, but can tolerate being indoors if given sufficient light, is the podocarpus macrophylla (Buddhist Pine).

You can google this species and see some very nice bonsai with this material. According to some sites it says that it is a Zone 7-10 hardiness and some sites say Zones 9-11 hardiness. Regardless, I have seen some nice bonsai made with this material that are predominantly kept indoors in a very well lit area.
