On the river I'm very sure villain does not have a J, and I want it to look like I do. Is this a good play every now and again or just chip spewing?

Are you trying to represent quad Jacks? Other than that hand, what could you possibly hold that you would have raised to $4 preflop with? AJ?
I think this play is unlikely to work against a thinking opponent, but that doesn't mean that it would work quite a bit depending on competition.
