I love TWHs, I own one myself, and they are very versatile. They do it all. My little mare jumps 55 gallon barrels, which are about 2 feet high, and she could jump higher, but I'm more into western so I dont focus on that a whole lot. Sorry, off topic kinda. the answer is yes, however, TWHs are better for begginers than serious competitors. a TWH will last you to around the 3 foot jumps, but after that, unless you have an exceptional horse, you may want to look into a hanoverian or thoroughbred for jumps higher than 3'6

Should you get a Tennessee walker if you want a fast running horse to ride everyday?
Tennessee Walking horses are not the fastest horses. They run about the same speed as most other horses, around 25-30 mph. They are really smooth though, in all their gaits, trot and lope included, from my experience. They are really good horses. However, if you want a really fast horse for short distances, a Quarter horse would be a better breed. They can run at 55 miles an hour for about a quarter of a mile. For a slightly slower horse but with more stamina, you could look into a thoroughbred who run closer to 40 mph. Other horses run about 25-30 mph like the Tennessee walker.
