Install a plugin like sourcerer which lets you insert custom code as a module.

Create a custom HTML module and publish it somewhere on your code.

Edit the custom HTML module and insert jQuery commands to update the elements you want.

Joomla uses MooTools by default but there are plugins to insert jQuery.

Remember that you won't be able to use the $ alias for the jQuery command so you'll have to use the long form.

Otherwise there might be another Joomla slider that will let you do this.
