You can have one or the other, but not both. As for punishing the child by denying access to the child, that's up to you.

Can a father who has joint physical custody of his son be granted sole physical custody if the mother is in jail?
Either parent can have physical custody in a joint custody arrangement.

I think it depends on how long the mother will be incarcerated for. There might be a hearing giving the father temporary custody. But if the father ever tries to get full physical custody of the child in the future, it might not be good for the mother. However, she can never be refused visitation.
If the mother and father are not married and he is not on the birth certificate can he get joint physical custody?
The father's paternity must be established legally, usually through a DNA test. Once established as the father he can request joint custody and a visitation schedule. A child support order will also be established. He should visit the family court for more information.
