They recently announced the mac.metal instance type for EC2 instances[0]. They currently only have Intel instances but I can’t see why the newer M1 instances aren’t coming soon.

They are coming, but they will be crippled because of Apple licensing terms. The minimum rental period is 24 hours (every time you turn it on) so it's quite useless for e.g. occasional build.
