It ought to. The regular jewel cases are perfect squares (in the front cover at least), so as long as the image is a square you're good.

I know you said you're not concerned with the dpi, but 600x600 px will likely give you a very low quality image upon printing. Up to you, though.

Make it 15cm x 15cm.
Then you have space for cut offs and what not.
If your printer isn't retarted, he can resize it himself.
