I don't know if it's possible with RT (I guess not), but you gave the
solution yourself: use procmail.

Pipe to procmail instead of rt-mailgate, filter all spam and make
procmail pipe the mail rt-mailgate.

/etc/mail/aliases:
rt:	|"/path/to/procmail /some/procmailrc"

/some/procmailrc:
# Spam dropping rule
:0
* ^FROM.*Cash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
/dev/null

# Pipe to RT
:0
| /path/to/rt-mailgate


I haven't tested this setup, but I think it should work.
