Can I just spray rubbing alcohol mixture and not kill my plant?

Essentially, I think I might have mealy bugs on my ficus, pictures below. I am new to this so I am hoping that I am wrong. I read that I can use a diluted 50% rubbing alcohol mix with distilled alcohol and a couple of drops of dawn dish soap in a spray bottle then spray the leaves. Will it die or survive? Thank you!!
