If you got the space , spare jackstands and don't need to move the car , then why not?? The jackstands will take the pressure off the tires and keep from flat spotting them , making for a more rounder tire that won't go blip blip till it heats up upon reuseing said car ,I suppose it depends on how long the car is going to be inactive, YMMV.......
