I doubt it. For one, if you use a GUI, the host's VM just cannot access 
the client's graphics, and in many cases would be unprepared to do so, 
too: a Linux VM wants to talk to X11, while a Windows VM wants to talk to 
the Windows equivalent.

However, you could just redirect the DISPLAY if your host _and_ guest have 
X11-targeted Javas. But then, why would you need to start QEmu at all?
