Yes, AWT doesn't work without a connection to an Xserver.

I haven't tried it but maybe Xvfb will help you:

 xvfb provides an X server that can run on machines with no display hardware
 and no physical input devices.  It emulates a dumb framebuffer using virtual
 memory.  The primary use of this server was intended to be server testing, but
 other novel uses for it have been found, including testing clients against
 unusual depths and screen configurations, doing batch processing with Xvfb as
 a background rendering engine, load testing, as an aid to porting the X server
 to a new platform, and providing an unobtrusive way to run applications that
 don't really need an X server but insist on having one anyway.
