In Emacs, you can do anything if you are willing to write some lisp. Short
of that, the answer is no.

No. which-func-mode relies relies on imenu and assumes that the imenu is a
simple linear list of functions. The JDE version of imenu is much more
elaborate to accommodate Java's association of methods with classes.
Therefore, which-func-mode does not work in a JDE buffer.
The next release of the JDE will include a which-method mode that displays
the class and method in which the cursor is currently located in the
mode-line of a JDE buffer.
