The protocol for communication between client and server is not http, so a client will not communicate with the server using http and the SFS client libraries.
You can have servlets (using embedded Jetty) talk to the SFS. In this case you could set up a http based client to talk to SFS. I believe there is very limited use case for this though. These http clients would not be first class citizens of the SFS environment, and much more work would need to be done to manage even simple things like room list update. The use cases I can think of are mostly dealing with external systems requiring a servlet callback (authentication or payment services spring to mind).
Also the SFS protocols are optimized for large volume messaging. Http simply isn't.
If however you just wanted to use the http port, you could switch it in the configs. The only problem is that you would be offering a non http service on a port that is advertised to support http, and the embedded webserver would consequently be on a nonstandard port.

Are you maybe referring to http tunneling?
