It is certainly possible, and I'm aware of a few efforts to create things like this based on OFBiz.
The term "client server" usually refers to a heavier client application talking directly to the database server, and that is basically what the POS application is (using a Swing UI, based on XUI).
Another, generally better, approach is to have a lighter application that talks to service on an application server. The OFBiz framework supports this easily as well talking to the server in limited ways using SOAP or XML-RPC, or more flexibly with a remote dispatcher for the OFBiz Service Engine. For example code and comments describing how to use it see the java file for:

Hi all, i'm thinking if there's an ofbiz desktop client based on some technology like eclipse RCP it will attract more users and organizations, is there any project like this? and if not, does ofbiz supports this model of development client / server, is it easy or hard to be done ? -- Mohamed M.
