I have a basketball hoop that is 6 ft 5 in, i'm 16. Would it still be good to practice my jumpshot on?

No. it will create bad habits. Shooting is about creating muscle memory. If you're practicing on a shorter goal then you're training your muscles to activate at a different angle. You would be better off not practicing at all.
Maybe if you're like 5 and shooting on a 9 foot goal it might not matter much but by the time you're 11 or 12 you need to be practicing on a regulation goal.
