   What do you want to debug?  The regular Pis have JTAG to which you can hook   
   up a debug probe and run something like OpenOCD+gdb on another machine (you   
   can likely do that from another Pi using GPIO, or a USB JTAG widget).  But   
   you're debugging the whole OS including all the daemons and whatnot that are   
   running on it.  Unless your issue is with the kernel itself (eg a boot   
   failure) or with some code running bare-metal, I don't think JTAG is going   
   to help much.   
      
   The Pico's Debug Probe provides SWD, which is for microcontrollers but not   
   for application-cores on the big Pis.  It provides 2 signal wires where JTAG   
   needs 4, so I don't think you could repurpose it for JTAG even if you wanted   
   to.
