The neighbour has a garage window on our boundary that looks directly into our property, am I within my rights to cover this up in some way?

How long has the window been there?
As the neighbours window sits within the wall of their garage, you cannot touch it or attach anything without their express permission.
You could erect two posts on your own land with a board across to cover the window but it must not physically touch their wall/window. I doubt a garage window would have a right to light but happy to stand corrected."Although scalar fields are Lorentz scalars, they may transform nontrivially under other symmetries, such as flavour or isospin. For example, the pion is invariant under the restricted Lorentz group, but is an isospin triplet (meaning it transforms like a three component vector under the SU(2) isospin symmetry). Furthermore, it picks up a negative phase under parity inversion, so it transforms nontrivially under the full Lorentz group; such particles are called pseudoscalar rather than scalar. Most mesons are pseudoscalar particles." (finally explained to a captivated Celestine by Professor Brian Cox on Wednesday 27th June 2012

Have you asked your neighbor if they could permanently cover the window or if your could, what do you think their reaction be?

I would be careful before interfering with the flow of natural light through that window.
If the garage has been there long enough your neighbours may benefit from an easement allowing that right to light.
The fact it is a garage doesn't matter as the law recognises the importance of natural light into work places, which that garage could well be. (I know my OH reckons I spend more time in mine working on car than in the house
)
