If so, I would run 3 pipes. Two of them would have pumps, each sending water to the other sump. The third pipe would be a siphon, with both ends submerged below the water level in the sump at either end. If there was to be an imbalance in the levels of the two sumps, such as caused by one pump pushing more than the other, the levels would be immediately corrected by the 3rd/siphon pipe. This also assumes that the two sumps will be at almost the exact same elevation (slab foundation).
The only draw back to this would be, if you ever broke siphon in the 3rd pipe. If you decide to set this up, make sure that you have a 'purge' valve at the highest point of the 3rd pipe in order to vent ALL air/gas from the pipe when establishing the siphon.
