Is it in any way possible, using javascript (jquery), html (5) to get a pasted image.
e.a a user click the printscreen button, opens a web page, clicks CTRL+V and the image is uploaded to the server (without the need to save to a local pc)
is it achievable through flash, java, any other technology?

Reset to default 10Yes, this is possible in pure JavaScript, assuming either Google Chrome or Chrome Frame.
View a live demo of a jQuery plugin that cleanly wraps the HTML Clipboard API. This works by getting binary image data from the Ctrl+V paste event into JavaScript.
Google Docs supports drag-n-drop in everything but MSIE, however it still does not support copy & paste of images:

I don't think it's possible using plain html/javascript, but you can do it using a java applet. Ex: Radinks upload control
