You will have to use a case when expression i.e. case status when 'active' then 0 when 'inactive' then 1 else null end. With JPA Criteria this looks roughly like this:

CriteriaBuilder.SimpleCase<String> caseExprssion = cb.selectCase(root.get("status"));
caseExprssion.when(cb.literal("active"), cb.literal(0));
caseExprssion.when(cb.literal("inactive"), cb.literal(1));
caseExprssion.otherwise(cb.nullLiteral(Integer.class));
criteriaQuery.orderBy(caseExpression);
