Can you use chocolate chips in a recipe instead of a chocolate bar?

Whether chocolate chips can be used in place of a chocolate bar depends entirely on the recipe. If the chocolate bar is broken or chopped up, and the chips are the same type of chocolate - milk, semi-sweet or bittersweet - then the chips probably would be a good substitute.

Can I use coconut flour instead of coconut flakes?

A substitute for dried/dessicated shredded/flaked coconut will depend on the recipe. Most use it for flavour and texture. In some recipes, rolled oats or wheatgerm could be the subsitute, but be aware that this will give a very different flavour, and is not suitable for some recipes. Coconut ice is very dependent on the texture and flavour of the coconut.
