You have two options:

First, you can overwrite the NetBeans ant target in the project's build.xml in order to create your two jar files.
How you can do this, is explained in the online help of NetBeans. The chapter is named "Customizing the IDE-Generated Ant Script

But I would recommend to create different projects for each "executable".

Most probably server and client are using some common code, so you'll wind up with three different projects in NetBeans:

1. MyApp Common - contains all classes that are used by server and client
2. MyApp Server - contains everything that you need for the server, includes the project "MyApp Common" as a library
3. MyApp Client - contains everything that you need for the client, includes the project "MyApp Common" as a library.

Then when you build the client or server project, each will generate a separate jar file.

You can have two mains in the same jar file. (Only one if you want an executable jar)

To create two jars you need two maven modules/pom.xml
