It should, yes to my knowledge jsf-spring (although it did not work for me in my last project) should allow the calling from jsf beans within spring and vice versa thus you can scope beans over jsf. Things will become easier however with spring 2.0 then you simply define all beans in spring and have faces-config doing the rest. (the xml syntax according to the spring devs, also will be cleaned up and tighter, I have not looked into it yet though) Have in mind that jsf-spring works quite well in many situations, but some situations still are problematic with that lib, I recently (in fact last night) ran into the situation of not being able to deploy an app on websphere due to the fact that jsf-spring interfered with the WAS6 class loader. But at least if you go the one way route there are other fallback options. So choose your binding technology with care upfront and do some minimal testing.
