JWI does not provide anything like this but you can always use Full Text Search techniques to achieve this kind of functionality. There are many libraries providing indexing and text searching functionality.

I have personally used Lucene and SqlLite in Dot.Net C# for indexing and full text search but you can also use them in java and other programming languages.
