No. Packages in jessie-backports, aka *old*stable, must come from stretch, aka
*stable*, which is currently on 4.7.5+dfsg-2+deb9u1 and contains the security
fixes you're after. That is the version that should be backported.

NB: You *can* backport from testing to oldstable, but those belong in
    oldstable-backports-sloppy, and should be avoided if possible as upgrades
    can become more complicated.
