Is it possible to upload Applets in a directory e.g.
/uploads/applets and integrate them into a site via [[Applet:Appletname]] ?
No.
A more helpful answer would be to point you towards
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Write_your_own_MediaWiki_extension and
the various linked resources.
The upload part should just be a case of allowing the ".class"
extension to be uploaded in LocalSettings.php (with the
$wgFileExtensions variable) - this will upload them along with
anything else, with descriptions at [[Image:Foo.class]] and file
locations nested in md5-based directories unless you set
$wgHashedUploadDirectory=false.
You'll then need to hack in a way of actually displaying those applets
inline - it oughtn't to be too hard to create an <applet>Foo</applet>
wiki-tag that spits out the right HTML for you...
