I have a test assignment where i need to implement communication between web client and server. WebClient is a simple web application that receives user's requests and then pushes them to ActiveMQ, so Server can handle those requests and push response back to ActiveMQ.
As i am new to JMS, my question is: should i implement client and server in one project, or decouple them?

If you imagine a scenario where you have 2 different components interacting, I would implement client and server in two different projects deployed inside 2 different EAR projects.
However in Java Enterprise applications you can use JMS to implement parallelism: you can deploy many consumers and consume concurrently the message produced by the client, achieving parallelism. In this case I think a single project for both client and server it's suitable even in real world applications.
It's up to you but in real world it would be even two different teams who create server and client.
