In the Community Edition, this is not straightforward, but you can do it.
The Internet Edition has a much better support for debugging.
In CE, you can edit the java process parameter in "JSP Execution" to include
the required JPDA debugging switches. Then run the JSP by "Execute". This
will start the server in debugging mode. Then you connect the debugger to
the server by "Debug -> Attach to VM ...". Now the server should stop on
breakpoints in your Java classes.
Of course, writing a stub class which runs Tomcat is an option too.
