EJB explicitly precludes you from accessing files, including via third party libraries such as Lucene.
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/qanda/ejb_tier/restrictions.html In practice you may be able to get away with it but I see no particular reasons why using an EJB server should offer any benefits over a Servlet container.

This design should take into consideration remote searching.
