The term "crown jewels" is usually used to mean not merely that jewelry owned by "the crown" ... that is, the reigning monarch... but specifically the ornaments and regalia used in the actual coronation ceremony, which may be of significant historical value and kept locked away at all other times.
In that sense, a princess regnant... that is, the female ruler of a principality... would wear the crown jewels exactly once, on the occasion of her coronation. She could, presumably, wear them at other times if she wanted to, but probably would not as it would likely go against tradition.
A princess of a kingdom (not the monarch, but, for example, the daughter or granddaughter of the monarch) would not wear the crown jewels, unless she was in the process of being crowned Queen Regnant at the time.
If you take "crown jewels" to mean simply "jewelry owned by the crown", then it's up to the sovereign who gets to wear what. It's possible that a princess might be allowed to wear certain pieces but not others. An analogous situation might be your mother being perfectly okay with letting you borrow her pearls for prom night, but isn't going to let you wear her wedding ring no matter what the occasion is.
