When running Tomcat standalone, a web app's context.xml definition can be overridden by placing a context definition, with the same name as the applications context, in the tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost directory. This allows a single war to e deployed by configuration options to be changed for each installation site. Deploying an updated war will not override the context in the conf/Catalina/localhost directory.

Is such an option available when running a tomcat application from within JBoss?
