Yes. Any Java app that runs in another java process (not the java process running JBoss AS) is a remote client. And app that runs within the same java process as JBoss AS is considered to be a local client.

You can't. I'm not exactly sure of why this was declared an anti-pattern, but I think it has more to do with the remote access to the datasource than to placing the datasource's name in the global JNDI area. Thus, even with the datasource name in global JNDI, any local access to the datasource is not exhibiting the anti-pattern.

There is already a Tomcat instance embedded within JBoss AS. Though since 4.2.0 it is called JBoss Web which is based on Tomcat.
