To cut the long story short: not yet, sorry.

_Theoretically_ it could be done, but there is no working Java  
interface yet. I came up with a proof-of-concept Java interface a  
while ago, it's in the dev tree, but it is _very_ far from being  
complete (even some most essential functions like addEdges are  
missing). I did it only because I wanted to learn how to use the Java  
Native Interface. To quote the README file of the Java interface I  
started:

"Since I don't use Java intensively, chances are that this interface  
gets finished only if there is substantial demand for it and/or  
someone takes the times to send patches or finish it completely."

We would need an enthusiastic volunteer who is either experienced in C  
and willing to maintain the Java interface, or willing to donate some  
money for us to finish the Java interface ;)
