As far as I can see from the Selenium Webdriver Based Testing article you should just upload your .jmx script and BlazeMeter will pick it up. Just make sure not to use Internet Explorer as their systems seem to be running on Linux so only Firefox and Chrome are supported.
Also my expectation is that you should reach out to BlazeMeter Support in case of any issues, they should be more aware of their infrastructure than anyone here.
