Here is the problem: if you have ripped your music using Windows Media Player, it will create a Folder.jpg cover file (and a few others as well), but for some strange reason it's created with the 'system' and 'hidden' attributes set. This means that Silverjuke doesn't see it and therefore won't recognise it as a cover file.
There is no way to change this behaviour from WMP. However, you can change the attributes of all your Folder.jpg files as follows:
Let's assume that your music is in the folder C:\music ...
Close Silverjuke if it's running
Open a command prompt and type the following commands
c:
cd \music
attrib -s -h folder.jpg /s (this will take a while to execute if you have a lot of folders, and even longer if they're on a network drive)
exit
Go back into Silverjuke
If you haven't already done so, add 'folder' to the list of album cover keywords
Recreate your music library. You should find that your album covers will appear.
As you add more albums you'll need to repeat this process, or else choose different software to do your ripping.
Hope this helps.

No, currently not.

Adding "folder" to "Settings / My music library / Combine tracks to albums / Keywords to identify cover image for an album" should do the job:
