So we have a few Shib enabled Java Web applications that run on
Tomcat with Apache in front running the SP. Are you saying that we
could run the proposed Java SP on our Tomcat server and eliminate the
need for Apache Web server?

Yes

Would the SP run in the servlet container?

Yes.

If yes would you be able to run multiple SPs in the same container?

Logically yes. If it was implemented as a Servlet/Filter is would be an SP per application since it would be part of the app itself. If the implementation was done as a JASPI module then there would only be one SP per container and it would have to be configured on a per-application basis in a way similar to the way the C++ SP worked.
