Well, you've got two questions:
1) Whose whistle? In 2-person mechanics, the non-tossing official should usually handle the immediate violations. The tossing official usually does not have the whistle in his/her mouth for safety reasons.
2) Should there be one? In the play you have mentioned, there is no violation. The back court restrictions do not apply during a jump ball, per 9-9-3.
