Is there any way to make the slack jira cloud tickets fall into the current open sprint instead of going to backlog?
First that strikes me as an odd goal as it would go against good agile practices. However my opinion aside, you could consider using using Automation. It would necessitate some unique field value or other condition to succeed. Maybe a label could be added for every issue created in Slack such that the automation could succeed. Example
trigger - issue created
condition - label = slack-created
action - edit issue: update sprint and set status as desired
