Jquery is javascript that runs in your browser, your web.config resides on your server. If you want to expose data from your web.config, I think you should create some kind of webservice that you can call from the client side javascript to get the data you want.
If you would be able to directly read from the web.config file, then it would be a major security risk as the web.config file is often used for storing sensitive information like connection strings etc.
