Let's reword the question a bit.
Will an unknown pump pressure, through unknown unequal pipe lengths, provide an unknown amount of heat to two rooms?

Yes, water will flow through 1/2 inch pipe from a 3/4 inch pipe. You won't know the resistance of each pipe run, so you won't know what percentage of the water will pass through each room - whether it is enough to heat one or both rooms enough.

Many post questions looking for a guess without science. All that's left is to try it and see if the guess worked.
