Advice Needed on Radiant Plumbing

Options

I wonder if I can get some advice on a radiant heating project. I have a high efficiency boiler running 4 short zones in a small house. On one circuit that currently has two small radiators I would like to be able to use the return line from the radiator, through a mixing valve to get the temperature down to underfloor range. This is for the same room using the radiators (not enough heat). The return line would come back to the mixing valve and also to the main return to the boiler and the under floor circuit would have its own pump.

My questions is,should this be attempted? I realize that both pumps must come on when heat is called for. Would this work well?

Thanks for advice.

David
