Yes and No. Within the calibre library the name cover.jpg is used and can not be changed. However if you use the save to disk feature, while saving the book the cover (if option to save cover separately is checked) will be saved with the same name as the book.

As previously pointed out the calibre library/database is not user configurable.

This is not what you asked, you asked about the library structure itself. Sending the books to the device can be in any form you wish.

Again in the below quote, if you ask the right question instead of making assumptions you might find out things.

You CAN easily put all of your calibre book files in one folder. When exporting books form calibre you have complete control on how they are exported. If you want all of your books and covers in old giant folder, use the Save to disk feature and do it.

Update: In order for the complete metadata to be present in your exported books, never use a file manager to drag books directly from your calibre library. Instead use any of the 4 or 5 ways to export books from the library.

Save to Disk
Send to Device
Connect to Folder
Connect to iTunes
Content Server

Good Reading.
