No, the JAAS LoginModule (OS390LoginModule) for RACF cannot be purchased separately. JAAS modules are only available in the JAAS component of the Java for z/OS SDK. The OS390LoginModule for RACF cannot be run on any other platform, as the support is compiled specifically for the z/OS platform. Also, JAAS, as shipped in the Java SDK, contains no support for remote authentication using the OS390LoginModule on z/OS.
