I think all you have to do to see that Joey was reacting with jealousy when finding out about Pacey/Jen is to compare Dawson's reaction versus Joey's.

Dawson had a very calm reaction. He thought it was sort of funny and slightly even sad, because he viewed them as two lonely people wanting some comfort. It was very obvious that Dawson was emotionally detached from the situation. No jealousy whatsoever.

Joey, on the other hand, was reacting way over the top. She had her emotions all over the place as anyone with a jealous reaction would be demonstrating. And her emotions were very much displayed as a result of being attached to the situation.

It was very clear to me that Joey was acting with big time jealousy. She may not have even realized it at the time, and thus, her over the top and confusing response to the situation at hand. But, it was certainly jealousy that she was feeling. At least that's how I see it.
