no thats too hot.anything above 85c its risky! for an reference card at stock speeds. make sure your tower is dust free and has good air flow. also check if the back of the gpu where the fan blows air out of it is also blocked(by dust) also monitor gpu fan utilization

if you have increased ambient temperature inside your tower better have an intake fan down in from of the tower and an exsaust on the upper back in order to achieve an good air flow , else you are and up recycling hot air. if you already have an intake an exsaust fan see if you can and another intake or replace them with bigger high-static pressure fans.
also if the bottom of the case has an opening you can put there an additional fan as an itake. what case do you have?

i have one of those old case (dont know the name) only has 2 fan one on the side and one at the back. the side is intake and the back is exhaust.
sometimes i open the side of my case to get air in.
i am thinking to get a case that has similar features like this one:
