Although sagemath installs JSpecView itself, I don't think it needs a "viewer for spectral data in the JCAMP-DX format" since it uses jmol only as a viewer for its 3d plots. If the package doesn't secretly provide other functionality as well it's quite possible that sagemath can work with a jmol version without that. Sagemath does however use jsmol.
