If you could stand on Jupiter on any possible way (its atmosphere is dense and thousands of miles thick), you could only see the moons when they're in your line of sight and the Sun should shine on them. The outermost small moons would be practically invisible from the planet.
There are four of Jupiter's largest moons that are easily visible from Earth with just binoculars: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These moons are known as the Galilean moons, named after Galileo Galilei who first observed them in 1610.
That depends where you are. There are 16 moons that revolve around Jupiter so you can probably see all.
