Answer

False

Work Step by Step

We have $J_1=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $J_2=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ are $n \times n$ matrices in Jordan canonical form Obtain: $J_1J_2=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ We can notice $J_1J_2$ is in Jordan canonical form.
