Webb can only point away from Earth as the Sun is on the other side of Earth from Webb's location. All it would see is a bright source of IR; nothing much useful there. I'm afraid it would also likely be destroyed in the process as it is assuming near-absolute-zero temperatures for much of its instruments.
