"JavaMatlabSpoof: Replicating Matlab's Functionality with Java"

Creating a basic Java application that spoofs Matlab involves creating representations of Matlab's most essential functionalities, such as console input & output, execution of scripts and basic mathematical operations.

The example below is only an illustration and is extremely simplified. A true Matlab spoof requires implementation of numerous functionalities that Matlab provides.

```java
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.function.Function;

public class JavaMatlabSpoof {

public static void main(String[] args) {
HashMap<String, Function<Double[], Double>> operations = new HashMap<>();
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);

operations.put("add", numbers -> numbers[0] + numbers[1]);
operations.put("subtract", numbers -> numbers[0] - numbers[1]);
operations.put("multiply", numbers -> numbers[0] * numbers[1]);
operations.put("divide", numbers -> numbers[0] / numbers[1]);

while (true) {
System.out.println("Enter operation: ");
String operation = scanner.nextLine();

if (operation.equals("exit")) {
break;
}

System.out.println("Enter first number: ");
Double firstNum = scanner.nextDouble();

System.out.println("Enter second number: ");
Double secondNum = scanner.nextDouble();
scanner.nextLine();

Double[] numbers = new Double[]{firstNum, secondNum};

Function<Double[], Double> func = operations.get(operation);
if (func != null) {
System.out.println("Result: " + func.apply(numbers));
} else {
System.out.println("Invalid operation. Try again.");
}
}
scanner.close();
}
}
```

This Java program mimics a very basic functionality of Matlab - performing mathematical operations interactively through console inputs. It uses a map of functions that correspond with mathematical operations (add, subtract, multiply, divide) which can be invoked upon user's request. It also continues to accept operations until the user enters "exit". Though basic, this can be a good starting point to understand how to replicate more advanced Matlab functionalities in Java.

Keep in mind that this is a simplified example and doesn't cover the range of functionalities and possibilities of Matlab. To go beyond this and fully spoof Matlab would require a combination of various technologies and an in-depth understanding of both Matlab and Java.
