Definitely. All GlassFish source code is open sourced. You are free to just browse it or download and work with it.
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/source/browse/glassfish/
shows you how to browse all the source code or download it.
To be specific for Admin Console, you can just go to
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/source/browse/glassfish/admin-gui/
all the source code is under 'src' directory.
The module name for Admin GUI is 'admin-gui' , so when checking out source, you can specify -Dmodules=admin-gui if you only wants admin GUI source code.
eg.
'maven checkout -Dmodules=admin-gui bootstrap build configure-runtime' to check out and built.
Detailed instruction and environment setup can be found at:
http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=BuildInformation
If you have downloaded the source and built it, you can just open the
<workspace>/glassfish/admin-gui project in NetBeans.

Admin Console is built on JSFTemplating
https://jsftemplating.dev.java.net which is a framework for both JSF page and Renderer. There are tutorials and sample projects available to get you started. You may want to check this out too.
