Depends on the extinguisher, but locking it in with the windows up won't be a problem.

Did pulltab ever determine what caused your compressor to die? 99.9% of the time when a compressor burns out it leaves debris in other parts of the system. At the very least the system should've been flushed, suction accumulator/drier replaced, liquid line/orifice tube replaced, and oil charge adjusted. Jake could be on to something when he mentioned the fans, I'd pop the hood and check before you buy a new fan relay. The blend door could be a possibilty, but it's electrically actuated in your jeep and I feel like you notice it sooner if it was stuck in full heat.
With all that said, sounds like a refrigerant pressure problem. You'll need to put a manifold gauge set on there to find out though.
