Well, you could effectively turn it off by deliberately providing a non-existent ISBN... but that's rather ugly. No sense in blaming the poor MARC record or Evergreen for the book jacket image provider's mistake.<

Or the publisher's mistake, if they've reused the same ISBN--in which case the ISBN in the MARC would be correct (though should be in $z if known at the time of cataloging), and I'm not familiar with how book jacket image providers deal with reused ISBNs.
