You DB2 Server installed on the machine where the database is located.
By default, when you install DB2 Server, you also get a client
installation on that machine.

No you cannoit.
DB2 client is exactly what it says, a client not a server. The DB2
client does not even a command to create a Database, let alone the code to
create, maintain and administer a Database.
You can use DB2 Express edition to provide you with the ability to
create and administer a local Database and give you connectivity to remote
Database's on servers.
That edition is (was at to V9.1) a free download. No license but it
should not be used as production envireonment.
