If you do that, oversize the pump so you don't slow down the flow though the chiller. Most chillers have a minimum flow rate that must be maintained otherwise they will freeze up. Long runs through a manifold and down to 1/2" or 3/8" through a coil will limit/slowdown the output coming out of the chiller.
My chiller has a 1" input/output and must maintain a minimum of 500GPH.
Chillers themselves add ~6ft of head, so take that in to account when sizing the pump and running lines.
