Adult tapeworms probably have a limited survival span outside the host body - not more than several days, if even that long. The adult tapeworms are not able to feed and have no way to re-enter a host. Given their habitat you probably won't encounter one unless it's during a fresh post-mortem.
An ancillary question would be, how long can the tapeworm egg sacs survive outside the host body? The answer to that one may be 'indefinite' - the eggs require no special conditions to survive.
