According to the MathJax documentation, the AMSmath package is
supported by an extension, but you may have to configure your MathJax
installation to enable it.
http://www.mathjax.org/resources/docs/?tex.html
I don't think there's any way for Org-mode to tell MathJax to do this.
If I understand the documentation, though, without configuration you
can still make MathJax enable AMSmath by using a math *environment*
defined by AMSmath, like \begin{smallmatrix} or \begin{subarray}.
Haven't tried it.

FWIW, I believe the general answer is no. MathJax is not a LaTeX
installation. MathJax is implemented in JavaScript to render a subset
of LaTeX commands (math commands, not general typesetting) with HTML
and CSS. This subset does not include \input or \usepackage to load
LaTeX packages (.sty files). It does include \newcommand, so if a
macro you need can be defined with the macros already supported, that
might work. Otherwise a MathJax extension would need to be written,
and enabled in the MathJax configuration. If special fonts are needed
that are not provided with MathJax (that might be the case for
stmaryrd), you'd need to provide those too.
I'd get in touch with the MathJax developers if you need support for a
specific package.
Yours,
Christian
