Default jacking up a corvette

Is it possible to Jack up a Corvette with those portable jacks? My dad says that the only way to Jack up the car is on a 4 post lift that you drive the car on.

PLEASE...yes I said please, use the "search" function at the top of the page. There are over "1000" posts on how to jack up a C-5 Vette.
It covers all the jacking points, jacking pucks, jacks and all the "how to's".
