Of course they might both fold, so the bet may be worth the semi bluff. But I wouldn't like to take on a good player on this position, so I'd take the free card.
Catching the Jack on the turn after a check with 3 other people in the pot puts you in tough spot because it puts k q j on the board, so even that is scary. I think in a limit game you go ahead bet, your betting at the max $20 to possibly win around $70 its well worth the stab. If they fold then great, if you get called your options are still in play in the next round because the max bet is still only $20.
