I stand corrected and yes you can occupy the J/S to and from Guam.
For the purposes of jumpseating, a flight is considered international if it departs from the United States (or a U.S. Territory) to a location outside the United States, or if it departs from a foreign location to the United States (or a U.S. Territory). Note that these procedures do not apply to flights between GUM and HNL, between GUM and SPN, or to flights to or from Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands. These procedures also do not apply to DOD flights.
