Aside from "Porky's Hare Hunt"-which featured the Bugs prototype-and "Porky Pig's Feat", as well as "Corny Concerto"-which had Bugs and Porky appearing separately, if I recall-were there any other cartoons in which Bugs and Porky appeared?

Porky appears at the very beginning of Dumb Patrol (1964) in a non-speaking cameo.

Actually Bugs and Porky were together in Corny Concerto. The little Daffy look-alike was the one who got the separate story. Their character interaction was still the sort of standard hunter/heckler thing though.

If one's counts this, there's also Hare-um, Scare-um, in which there's a scene where during the early Bugs' self-serving song he stops by a billboard advertising Looney Tunes and sporting a picture of Porky Pig.
Looking back, it's kind of interesting how Bugs and Porky interacted so rarely. I guess that Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies directors weren't able to think of a successful formula in which Bugs' aggressive character could interact with Porky's much gentler style, except for the classic "Prey outwits predator" scenario, which they were already doing with Bugs and Elmer. They could also have done Bugs and Porky as "Con Man and Sucker", but they pretty had that department covered with Daffy and Porky.

Daffy and Elmer as well, and both were doing the Prey outwits predator.
