If you update to 9.2 you will not be able to jailbreak as one does not exist for iOS 9.2 yet.

There is one for 8.4 available though. Search Google for Taig or Pangu

No there isn't. Once you restore, your stuck on 9.2.

Sucks you can't downgrade the OS. I'm hoping to put the split screen from the Mini 4 on my Mini 2 if I can ever get it jail broken. I'm not worried about processor or memory since I my plan is to split the screen with my bible and notes during bible study.

However OP, keep an eye here https://canijailbreak.com/

Your older iPad Mini version can jailbreak with TaiG software released by TaiG team. But iOS 9.2 device unable to jailbreak with any software this moment. However Pangu and TaiG team already given positive feedback to release Jailbreak tool for iOS 9.2. Also we have seen Italian iOS researcher also jailbroken iOS 9.2.1 and also iOS 9.3 Beta version.

Just let's you put two apps on the screen side by side. This would allow me to see my bible and my notes simultaneously.
