Moving a 3 way switch - extending "romex"

Is it acceptable to run insulated 14ga single strand through studs/
joists?
I need to extend the wiring of a 3 way switch. I have 14/2 "romex"
and 14ga single strand on hand. If it is acceptable (not against
code), I'd like to use the materials I have instead of buying a $100
roll of 14/3 to go 15'. I plan to make the extension connections in a
j-box and run the 14/2 + single strand through ceiling joists.
It is NOT acceptable to run a single conductor without a jacket or without
being in a conduit. You can buy Romex by the foot at a home center.
