We visit Hong Kong during the cruise itinerary. With that in mind (another Chinese city/region), do we still qualify to use the 144 visa exemption rule?

Yes. Hong Kong is considered a third country for immigration and customs purposes.

Yes since your scheduled stop is longer than 24 hours and less than 144 hours (6 days) you do not need a visa. This is assuming Shanghai is the only Chinese port the boat will visit.
