Is it possible for a java application, called by Oracle Forms, to participate in the same database session like Forms?

This is unfortunately not possible. The Forms process itself runs in the Forms Runtime on the server, which is a C program.
You can include a JavaBean as Jeffrey suggests, but the JavaBean will open it's own connection through JDBC - it will not share the transaction context of the Form.
There might be other ways - try updating the question with some details on what you are trying to achieve and I'll be happy to try to help you.

The only way I know of is for the java application to run as a component of a form, e.g. as a java bean within a form container.
