Hi guys, this is a 2001 XJ. Does anyone have an idea how to disconnect this joint on the picture? I need to take off the A/C.

Those take a special tool used for fuel lines, transmission lines, etc. Is the system discharged?

Here's a picture of what they look like. They clamp around the line, then get pushed into the fitting to release the internal spring.
