2. arrow-leaf plant, wandering jew, pothos
3. polka dot plant, arrow-leaf, spider plant, pothos
4. purple passion, arrow-leaf plant, polka-dot plant, pothos

I live in 9a/10a zone, and I want to place my terrarium 3 feet from a west window.

I would avoid the Pothos and Spider Plants for a terrarium, since they have a hanging growth pattern.
The remaining plants you mention will work as small terrarium plants.
Here are some articles for you with more information.
