If what you said made sense, the answer is NO.
Html is a tagged based "language" used to create web pages. Javascript (has nothing to do with java) is executed in your browser (to be exact is executed at the client but I don't know how else to explain it so you can understand it). Javascript does not need to be compiled.
Swing is java comipled and executed as an appilcation

It can be done :)
Try looking at webrenderer or native swing or jrex (it says it only works on linux). I tested the first two and they work :)
