no you won't have to get another alignment.
You aren't messing with the suspension of the car if you just jack the car up. The same if you change rims or take them on and off.

Yes, every time you jack the car up you need an alignment!
j/k
Cambo is right. If you do not play around with the suspension, then there is no need for an alignment. It is good to have one once every year as maintenence.

i don't believe you can get a lifetime warrenty on an alignment as daily driving can sometimes knock the alignment off (hitting potholes/curbs can do it sometimes)

you may want to clarrify the term JACK up the car!! when you say jack it up do you literaly mean put a jack under it to raise the car? Or do you mean raise the car back up to stock ride height?
