I think your Connection string is slightly malformed. I believe you need a sqlserver:// before your servername/instance.

I don't have a SQL Server instance handy but I tested the following code against SQL Azure and it worked well. I was able to select data from a table called helloworld and write it to a spreadsheet.

I've replaced my credentials with placeholders.

function readAzure() {
  var conn = Jdbc.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://XYZ.database.windows.net:1433;databaseName=MYDATABSENAME","USERNAME","PASSWORD");
  var stmt = conn.createStatement();
  var rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from helloworld");

  var doc = SpreadsheetApp.create('azure');
  var cell = doc.getRange('a1');
  var row = 0;
  while(rs.next()) {
    cell.offset(row, 0).setValue(rs.getString(1));
    cell.offset(row, 1).setValue(rs.getString(2));
    row++;
  }
  rs.close();
  stmt.close();
  conn.close();
}
