In principle, yes. A jpeg can contain the EXIF information that could allow a photo to be tracked back to the camera it was taken with, and thereby the owner could be identified. Besides EXIF, other metadata can be present in a jpeg too, such as an author name. There are various tools to explore/strip metadata in/from jpeg files, and I'm sure GIMP has an option to save a jpeg without any metadata that could lead to the identity of the author.
