FWIW, I did manage to get a jack client in pipewire by setting

["alsa.jack-device"] = true

in the alsa_monitor.properties block of 
.config/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-config.lua

It creates a jack_client device that you can set on or off.

In my case I did that because some librtaudio apps misbehave with the 
current pipewire jack emulation (VCV Rack in this case) if you don't 
force the sample rate/size and using native jack makes it better (since 
native jack doesn't allow live change of sample rate anyway).

HTH,
