Ya, but you'll need to prime the plumbing first. It depends on the setup on how best to do that.

If possible, you could siphon from the display. Attach a hose to the intake to suck on, and get the water back flowing, then turn on the pump. Build it as a U so that it goes up, over and into the sump and it will stay primed when you turn the pump off.
