Back to basics. Web service is any service that can be provided over web, meaning via the http protocol. So it even need not be SOAP. (Soap is a layer over http). So if you build anything that can handle http requests, that could be as good as a web service. (I haven't heard of any "web" service over bare TCP/IP). So if you have a legacy client / server app that is able to listen to http then you can add web services to your app.
