You can with GIMP.

 From Tools->Transform Tools select Crop.
Open the Tool Options dialog box (Windows->Dockable Dialogs->Tool Options).
Check the Fixed checkbox, and select Size from the dropbox.
Enter 1080x1080 in the entry field.
Click on the save button (green arrow pointing to a "disk"), and choose New tool preset. Give it a suitable name.
Now you can use that preset any time you want to select a fixed size cut area.

When you select on the image display it will allow you to drag around a fixed size rectangle cut box.
Click in the box to cut the area.
