Yes. The general idea is that you encapsulate the creation of your Javascript and template code (or links to corresponding resource files) into a JavaServer Faces component, which the developer can incorporate on their page just like any other component. On the client side, the rendered code would do XmlHttpRequest transactions with the host, using whatever your favorite binding technology is (dojo, dwr, ...). I know of several commercial libraries that already do this sort of thing (jsfcentral.com is a good starting place for pointers).
