No, a bad mount won't throw a code, but it will throw the transmission against the floorboard. LOL
Transmision codes involve electrical problems, and internal component failure, except clutches and bands, which show up as slippage.
As I repeated many times, if the Check Engine lite is lit, you need to get the car scanned and stop guessing at the trouble.
