Files such as javascript and css can be added to the statis folder for the app:

$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/appserver/static/

Once the file is added there, you can link it within your dashboard XML config:

<dashboard stylesheet="myStyleSheet.css" script="myJavaScript.js">
   . . .

You will also have to restart Splunk once those files are added.
Check this link for some more information:

Sorry, didn't realize you were attempting to load the actual jquery file. Splunk already includes jQuery as it uses it within the application. No need to import another copy.

Yes, it is possible. Sorry, I don't know too much beyond that but here are some examples of using jQuery in Splunk dashboards. Hopefully these help:
