It is possible to take the Pennsylvania hunter safety course online. I’m not sure why someone wants to do this, however, so it’s pretty doubtful that you can do it to meet insurability requirements. The course has been created and put together by the Pennsylvania Game Commission (PGC) since 1937.
The Pennsylvania Hunter Safety Course is not free (says the site). The course, which the PA Game Commission approves, consists of a maximum of 8 hours in the classroom plus 4 hours in the field. The value of this course is that it lowers hunting accidents and provides hunter education to future hunters.
The fee for the PA hunter safety course varies by provider. Some charge as little as $25, while others can cost up to $240. It all depends on the city where the course is being held.
The course is self-paced, so you can take as much time as you need to complete it.

You have to be at least 17 years old. The Pennsylvania Game Commission no longer issues a hunting license or any other form of hunting authorization under 17. Minors ages 16 and 17 can hunt with written permission from their parents or guardian, but they cannot carry a gun on their person while in the field (only during transportation).
Hunting requires a hunter safety course, which can take up to two years. Many counties require hunting licenses annually or every 365 days.
