What you can do is change the profile picture and set the privacy setting to "Only Me". This way no of your friends will see the update on their Timeline, so there is no chance to like and comment until they do not click on your profile.
To change this, open each profile picture and go to Edit, click the privacy button, and under Who should see this?, choose More Options and then click Only Me. You must do this separately for each photo in the album, including your current profile picture.
You will not lose the comments and likes on a previously posted photo, if you later pick the same photo for a cover. If you upload the same photo from your phone or PC to use as a cover, it would just be a second copy in your photo album and it would not get the comments and photos from the original.
