No, a table would not display correctly. On your first page you would have the first column showing the beginning text, and the second column showing text from the middle of the chapter due to having to manually split the text between the cells. It would only work with text amounts less then one page long and using "page-break-inside:avoid;" in the css, and could still cause problems when switching to a large font.
Is it possible that iBooks' formating settings are overriding the columns? Does iBooks even support columns? I don't know. I don't have anything that will run iBooks to test with.
