Answer:
Yes, you could.
How do we know this? If the Empire State Building is about 100 levels tall, and each level is about an average room in height, that means we can divide the giant pile into 100 piles of one level each. Would 100 piles of coins fit in a room? Of course it will, with lots of room for more.
