That would be against the rules and the answers on Jeopardy are the questions. That's why the answers are not correct unless they are in the form of a question. A TV Show can not allow there contestants to cheat or help them cheat since after a series of game show scandals of the 1950s caused the United States Congress to pass the 1960 amendments of the Communications Act of 1934, preventing anyone from fixing quiz shows. see related link
