Hi Harshad,

I guess the short answer is "no".

OpenLayers is a client-side JavaScript library for working with maps. (I have some experience using this, and highly recommend it!)

GeoTools is new for me, but from what I understand this is a Java (not JavaScript) library (API) for advanced and somewhat low-level GIS operations. There is no way to use this directly with OpenLayers, unless you write much server-side Java code which you deploy on a web server.

You are probably looking for something like GeoServer, http://geoserver.org. This is built upon GeoTools (among other libraries).

Good luck! :-)
