No.  Among other usual problems with manifest classpaths, that would make your 
jar arch dependent and it could no longer be installed in /usr/share/java 
which would then cascade into packages that use your jar.

What you should look into doing is finding out whether the "java" to be 
invoked is a 64-bit or 32-bit one, and add /usr/lib64/some/thing.jar or 
/usr/lib/some/thing.jar accordingly as appropriate to your classpath.  I'm not 
sure if there are any helpers available for doing that.
