I have found a solution to my query. It might not be a clean solution but I thought I will publish it here so that other might benefit if they have similar need.
Solution: Create a directory my-app.war in the "deploy" folder and put the file in there. JBoss will throw a warning saying that it could not find web.xml but your file will be available with the context-root "my-app".
