IcedTea is not been officially introduced into the packages/ports system yet, however, Tomcat has been in the packages/ports system for some time now. More information on the packages/ports system can be found at the following:

Is this a good way to go?
If you have the skill set to port IcedTea to OpenBSD, this is a question only you can answer, but if you run into problems, you will not be able to get a lot of help from the project proper. OpenBSD is a small project; there isn't a lot of infrastructure set up to answer questions.

I want to have the entire disk encrypted, so it would even boot from an encrypted FS.
You will want to study vnconfig(8). Data can be encrypted, but the system itself will have to remain unencrypted.
