This is most likely a cheap fix. The window motor in these cars contains a plastic gearset, with three plastic slugs that transfer power to the window regulator. These are there to make a "soft" connection that extends the life of other parts in the system, but over the years they slowly turn to mush.
You can get a set of them for a couple bucks.

You might hear people telling you to replace the plugs with something metal about the same shape. DON'T DO THIS. Replacing the plugs every now and then is much better than replacing the window regulators.
If the motors run they are probably OK. What happens with these a lot is the gear plugs get old and fail. These are three little rubberish plugs that go between the inner and outer part of the gear. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CO96SG is the official replacement part though I've used tons of other things to replace them.. You can usually find those in the HELP section of your local parts store.
The real gotcha is getting the motors out and back in but it looks like that may be covered already. Once you get it out open the housing and clean all the old plug remnants out and clean out the old grease. Regrease and new plugs and you are ready to go. I would clean up the tracks and regrease them as well since you are already in there.
also you will need a new plastic piece https://www.amazon.com/URO-Parts-51-938-884/dp/B0066TQ1MA/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_263_bs_lp_t_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=55NJGBH36HXBY0BCCNE4
Hey I had the same issue with my old one I replaced the clips 3 times and it kept breaking so I bought this the whole panel part it's simple to install just tape the window up. Hopefully this helps
This is also way easier to replace then the clips the new clips and everything you need is there. Just take the old one off and screw the new on one and slide the window on. The speaker you need to find 4 nuts and bolts to put it back on there is clips that hold it in and the only way to remove the speaker is to drill out the clips. I watched a you tube video :)

I bought a kit similar to this from rosenthal (which doesn't seem to exist anymore).

Hey buddy. Do it yourself it is not hard. I did mine a month ago, took me about an hour, you can buy the part relatively cheaply on amazon (mine was very well built when I received from amazon). If you have the most basic of tools and a couple hours of free time save yourself some money. This vide on youtube will show you step by step instructions on how to do it. Good luck.
They're on Amazon for around $50. Dorman 748-131 Honda Element Front Driver Side Power Window Regulator with Motor
There are no Mopar regulators still in production for the Cherokee but there are offbrands. Just Google Jeep xj (88-96, 97-01, wherever year bracket for your Jeep), drivetrain window regulator. I found this on Amazon. It's a dorman but its a new regulator for your Jeep.

The window regulator broke. You should be able to work the glass up until you can see two clips holding the glass to the regulator. Pull them out with a screwdriver. After that, you should be able to jog the entire assembly up and down to get it out of the door. The regulator will bolt onto the back of the assembly.

Maybe, if you took everything apart, but no not easily. It's behind the door panel and not reversible.
