Yes, as long as you keep respecting Ada semantics, i.e. you need to
have bindings with pragma Import that represent the classes written in 
Java.

One of the features of the Java Virtual Machine is that it doesn't
require a link phase. Classes are loaded (or downloaded if you are
accessing a program via the network) when they are referenced, you
don't have to compute the closure of your program a priori.
