I don't think so.  I would have the pump pull from a tube at the bottom of the
jar, and then simply dump the water out of the outlet tube into the top of the
jar.  I think the easiest way is to buy an aquarium kit for about $25, they you
get the gallon tank, the stirring pump, and a light and cover.  I use this one:

probably any local pet store.

I simply run it without the filter cartridge.
