I have been told that our company firewall might restrict access to Amazon EC2 network. What would be the quickest way to determine if a certain server will be able to access the EC2 instances, without actually going through the process of creating an AWS account and EC2 instances and then trying to ssh into the instances.

AWS publishes their public IP address space. You could probably try pinging some random IPs in those ranges and see if your packets get killed at the firewall.
