The term Jivanmukti is very popular in Advaita. Here are some instances of
this term occurring in the various Puranas, Upanishads, etc.  Not all of
them are exactly in the sense in which  Advaita uses the same.

जीवन्मुक्तौ तु तौ ज्ञेयौ यत्रकुत्रापि वै मृतौ ।।
प्राप्नुतो मोक्षमाश्वेव मयोक्तं निश्चितं वचः ।। १२ ।।
