I was able to create a queue dynamically using the following code in a Spring Boot app:

In Application.java

@Bean 
public ConnectionFactory jmsFactory()
{
    ActiveMQConnectionFactory amq = new ActiveMQConnectionFactory()

    amq.setBrokerURL("tcp://somehost");

    return amq;
}

@Bean 
public JmsTemplate myJmsTemplate()
{
    JmsTemplate jmsTemplate = new JmsTemplate(jmsFactory());

    jmsTemplate.setPubSubDomain(false);
    return jmsTemplate;
}

Then in another class which creates the queue dynamically:

@Component
public class Foo {
    @Autowired
    private ConnectionFactory jmsFactory;

    public void someMethod () {
        DefaultMessageListenerContainer messageListener = new DefaultMessageListenerContainer();

        messageListener.setDestinationName("queueName");
        messageListener.setConnectionFactory(jmsFactory);
        messageListener.setMessageListener(new Consumer("queueName"));
        messageListener.setPubSubDomain(false);
        messageListener.initialize();
        messageListener.start();
    }
}

If you need low-level access to the JMS API using JmsTemplate, then you need to use one of JmsTemplate's execute(...) methods. The simplest of these is execute(SessionCallBack), where the SessionCallback provides you with the JMS Session object. With that, you can call createTemporaryQueue() or createTemporaryTopic(). You can probably use one of the other execute() methods do some of the initial work for you, though, such as this one.
