TL;DR: No. The half-life of hydrogen-sulfide reacting with the oxygen in the jar (even if the jar contains only your fart) is 12-37 hours. The article gives an example of a particularly potent hypothetical fart that would only retain any distinguishable smell for 9 days tops.
4% of a fart is oxygen, according to the article, which is enough to react with all of the hydrogen-sulfide, since 1 mole of oxygen is enough to react with more than 1 mole of hydrogen-sulfide (H₂S makes up around 1% of the total volume).

What about the other odor producing compounds? From wikipedia:
So if I farted into a vaccum sealed bag… I could save it then?
Sadly, the fart itself comes with oxygen included
So i have to design an attachment to take oxygen out of the fart before sealing it? I better start watching some TED talks this could be some work.
My dreams have been shattered.
*sharted
There is a reasonable amount of oxygen in farts? Really?

What if we add oxygen absorbers in the jar as well ?
Persumebly not but there is oxygen in the air, usually.
Dammit I wanted to breathe in only farts
This guy farts
