Is Livezey a Jewish last name?

No way to know. Jews scattered across the world. Many married outside of their culture. So last names are not really indicative of their culture, only of the national orgin of the name. Case in point: I know a practicing Jew whose last name is Thompson!

Is Livezey a Jewish last name?
Very possibly off the top of my head, could be a variation of Levy (Levi,Levine, Levin, Levey). A common Jewish surname. There a number of distinctive Jewish surnames such as Levy or Cohen.
