My Question is can I get SQL timeout expired & still case be created in CRM?

Sure, it could possibly happen but there is no guarantee that it will happen. It would depend on when CRM is throwing the timeout - which you would need to do tracing to determine. If it is after the create transaction has completed then it wouldn't rollback the create.
