Does ThingWorx 9.1 allow using JQuery in expressions?

I did a small test and validated that JQuery works in expression function in 9.1. Import the attached entity and view the mashup, on button click the expression function changes the URL.

    Thank you for your response. I tried to find definite answer somewhere in the documentation but I wasn't able to. I've tested your example and yes, it works fine.

     

    My other question as a follow up is, can you use other functions such as selectors and css()? I this is my main goal with JQuery, and I was testing your example with simple background change:

     

     

    $('#root_flexcontainer-2').css('background', 'rgb(0,0,0)');

     

     

    In devtool it work, but when placed inside an expression it does not seem to do anything.

    I am not sure what all functions we can use. I tried using 

    $('#root_flexcontainer-2').css('background', 'rgb(0,0,0)');

    but I was unable to make it work. If I find a way, I will update it here.
