No, a bottle jack won't be high enough or safe enough. You need a solid floor jack and may even need a block of wood for the extra height. Are the headers emission's headers? They can be a bit tougher to install and may require even more height. It is highly recommended to replace the motor mounts while you have the exhaust out of the way. And you may want to get some heat wrap to put around the fuel lines for added protection, the y-pipe can be a little close.
