Probably not. Jensen has a nasty habit of rating its amps at 2% THD (check the PDF manuals for all the current models). So, most likely their amps don't actually do the rated power at 1% THD. Having said this, I had no problems using the 5-channel Jensen amp (rated for 70watts at 2% THD, but crutchfield lists 60watts at 1%THD). for powering my front speakers.

It is cea2006 compliant so that means it does rated power only at 4ohms. The 2 ohm power rating is probably inflated.
