That rule simply doesn’t exist. So if you are mid-jump—i.e. mid-air—nothing says you can’t attack. So you can, provided you meet all the requirements that the rules do have for attacking (actions, armament, reach, and so on).

How does jumping work in DND?
When you make a high jump, you leap into the air a number of feet equal to 3 + your Strength modifier if you move at least 10 feet on foot immediately before the jump.

How tall do you have to be to jump on an enemy?
Same with a Reach Weapon, 10ft away is 10ft – with in reach. Make sure to remember that 2 diagonal squares are equal to 15ft. Second: Athletics is what you use as a check for jumping. Whether it’s an Action or Move depends on your DM, for me it’s a Move so I’d rule that you could jump and attack if you jumped high enough.
When does a DM impose disadvantage on a jumping attack?
The DM can also decide that circumstances influence a roll in one direction or the other and grant advantage or impose disadvantage as a result. i.e., if the DM thinks the first attack is part of the jumping attack but the second is flailing while falling back down, then it’s perfectly reasonable to impose disadvantage.
