John AkiI feel shame. (It acts as a noun)

Yes, but it's formal-sounding, not colloquial. In everyday English we say "I feel ashamed".

John AkiI feel shameful. (It acts as an adj)

No, we don't say this. Some people seem to use "feel shameful" as if it meant "feel ashamed". This is incorrect in my view.
