Not really. A jet engine is a "reaction engine". It propels the aircraft forward by expelling mass, which must result in a forward force on the aircraft, via Newton's third law. It would work just as well in space, if it carried an oxidizer along with the fuel (which would make it a rocket engine).

watching p0rn on a tablet? no no no 
That's intellectually undemanding!
... watching p0rn needs at least a 55 inch Screen. You don't want to miss the details, won't you?
