So far I have one bs Spaulding peacock and a IB hen, they have 2 peachicks, I'm planning on bringing 4-6 chickens but I only have 1 coop, the coop is large but I was wondering will they get along? They will have there own roosting area on the floor ( the peas have a roosting area above the ground with a wooden ramp leading to it).

The peachicks are 4 months old

Not a good idea. First of all, peas will often pick on chickens, and they can hurt them badly. Secondly, chickens can carry a disease known as Blackhead which can easily and quickly wipe out a flock of peas.

How large... in feet by feet?

Curious if there's a 'rule of thumb' for space per pea like there is for chickens?
