Embedding a Web server is not particularly hard. There are a handful of Java-based Web servers, open source, that you can bake into an Android project. I experimented with NanoHTTPD once, back in late 2008, and it worked fine (within the limits of NanoHTTPD itself, which isn't a terribly sophisticated Web server).
However, you will *also* have to bake your Web app code into the same Android project. It probably won't be a servlet and definitely won't be a WAR. This too is not particularly hard, just more clunky than you are perhaps used to.
