Yes.
And some good wood blocking put in place after the car is on jack stands -
before you start your work.
A local guy here was crushed under a car just this past week.  He was found
deceased.  That is two I know of now.  And that my friend will spoil your
whole day.

A secure hydraulic jack to get the car up on sturdy jack stands on solid level
ground and a creeper to slide around on.
I can think of at least one highly rated shop that uses nothing more than
this.
