Sounds fine.

If you're using "Replaces" as a generic term (i.e. people should use
dhcp-client instead of pump), yes. If you're using "Replaces" in
the Debian packaging sense, no, as presumably there is nothing in
dhcp-client that overwrites pump files.

You _could_ coordinate a release with the dhcp-client maintainer so that
a dummy pump "Depended" on dhcp-client of the appropriate version, and
had upgrade/conversion scripts, but it's probably more trouble than it's
worth.
