ABSOLUTELY.  Remember, you're only drinking the water- fish
have to BREATHE it.

I have a couple of friends who are big into saltwater aquaria.  The
efforts they go through to ensure that the water going into their
fishtank is pure is pretty amazing.  I have NO doubt that any
pump designed for fishtank operation meets or exceeds the
cleanliness standards for human potable pumps, so long as it is
from a reputable dealer and manufacturer.  I would stake my
health on it
