Parking Brake Adjust

Hello all, with the warm weather here this week I want to adjust the parking brakes on my '81 240d manual tranny. My question is can I just lift one side at a time and be able to spin the tire. I have to do this at my work parking lot so I want to bring as little equipment with me as possible, like one jack stand instead of two. Trying to keep it simple.
I did a search and this question was asked before but not answered.

If all you need to do is adjust, then a jack stand, lug wrench, and flathead (long) screwdriver isn't that many tools.
