MP4 is required for DV profile 5 to work. The other two common profiles, 7 and 8, work in either MP4 or MKV containers. Dolby Vision profile 8.1 falls back to HDR10.

Jellyfin does support Dolby Vision and will tone map HDR to SDR during transcoding (if the server's GPU supports it).
If you rip to an MKV I think there are tools to recontainerize to MP4. ffmpeg comes to mind.
