You can use the RemoteCommandExecutor for sure, but the downside of this solution is that you can't use the standard API's (executionService, taskService, etc). The REST service offered by the console can be used, but it is by far not as powerful as the service API. Imo, the easiest approach is constructing a ProcessEngine on Tomcat, where the jbpm config is pointing to the same DB as the one on JBoss.
