Yes, the TECs may cool the the CPU loop to below ambient (depends on the efficiency for the "large" rad), but overall the TECs are going to be adding heat to the loop. All the electricity that goes into the TECs will be converted to heat in the loop. It has nowhere else to go, unless you use a second loop or air cooling to dissipate it.
Interesting hypothesis though.
