Yes. And a lot more service implementations. The example setup described
in my mail is just a simple example (With just a simple test service).
The whole picture would be a complex backend project which handles
business logic and persistence and multiple lightweight frontend webs
using this backend.

Putting all the backend stuff into a JAR and placing it in the lib
directory would definitely work but isn't nice for development because
it does not allow hot deployment. Having just the interfaces and a
service factory in the lib directory would be better because then
changes to the backend implementation stuff could be hot-deployed.
Interface changes still need a redeployment of the interface JAR file
and a tomcat restart but hopefully the interfaces will not change often.
(A solution which works without a global interface library would be even
nicer though...)
