You could use the 'deploy' operation on the jboss.system:service=MainDeployer MBean. The only gotcha with that is that the file name and path you give to the deploy method must be accessible from the server (in other words, this method does not copy the file from the client to the server). If you want to be able to remotely deploy applications, you will need to write code. A servlet that uses the html file upload mechanism should do it.
