Tomcat is a pure java application that indeed have windows service wrapper but it is absolutely optional. You can download ZIP file that contains tomcat distribution, open zip file where you want and run it using one of batch files you can find it its bin directory.

For example take a look on start.bat and catalina.bat

Jetty is your friend to do so. It doesn't require any installation. All it needs a jar file to be in your classpath. Check out this link: http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/current/advanced-jetty-start.html
