Are you asking about before or after you JB the Kindle? Before the only totally certain way is to keep it offline. It might be possible to prevent it by filling storage to the point that there isn't room for the firmware download before enabling WiFi, but I have heard mixed reports on this.

If you have control of the WiFi router you may be able to block or throttle the servers that Amazon uses to download the update.

After JB you can use the above recommended extension to block it.
