Inter-op for LDP and RSVP between C and J works fine.

Do take some time to look through these threads on the 
subject, though:

On the Cisco side, note that it is generally recommended to 
tunnel LDP within RSVP, particularly if you're deploying 
l3vpn's. This is done by configuring 'mpls ip' on the RSVP 
tunnel interface.
