No matter how much protection you give your key lime tree, it cannot survive the winter outdoors where you live. You are best off putting it in a container and bringing it in for the winter each year. I live in a similar climate as you and I have an orange tree that I treat this way. I have had it for 13 years now and it has grown happily outside in the summer and inside as a house plant in the winter. Your key lime should be fine this way as well.
