I need some information from my resource server or need to hit an endpoint to do some stuff.  
I want to create JWT token within my rule before the callback. So I could have that endpoint working.  
Is there any workaround to successfully achieve this?

You shouldn’t need a workaround. You just treat the rule as a server making an M2M call.

Here is an example:
