J2CL has no notion of modules (no "source path" or other "classpath subsetting", no "public path", no defined properties and no predefined values, no "entry point", no deferred binding).
GWT 3 might still have some of them (entry point, matrix of properties, some kind of "public path" or custom packaging à la Android AAR) but afaik it's still too early to tell in which form. Also note that all of those are related to the final compilation, so are dependent on the toolchain (Closure Compiler vs. other tooling, eg Webpack)
