It's not advised, putting a hot or warm chicken in a refrigerator will warm up the fridge and the other food in it, before the fridge has time to chill everthing down again, so the cooler it is the better.

Actually, it is better to refrigerate it while still warm than to leave it out too long because you forgot about it. Separate the chicken into smaller portions so it can cool faster. And don't stack warm things in the fridge - that won't allow the food to cool off appropriately. Most refrigerators now days should be able to handle the warm food without affecting the other food in the fridge.
