What is that beast, "server-side control"? Are you sure you know how ASP.NET controls work?

No, not possible.

Think about this once. Server side controls are always created from the Server side. When they are rendered to browser, they become HTML controls, but there are many other properties, functions and events injected so that they behave as Server side controls.

When you create any control at Client side, that will only take effect on browser side. You can't make that a server control.

If you are using any jQuery plugin for this, then you have to refer the Plugin js file code where it generates the resultant div. You have to change that code to generate a table and style that in such a way that it will look like ListBox.

If you are using Ajax Autocomplete, then I think you can, but that will be a lot of headache.
If you use jQuery Autocomplete, then you have a chance following the way I said in my previous comment.
