Hi,

[quote user=""]>> Is this application possible with the above mentioned chip?[/quote]

Yes, both the nRF52833 and nRF52840 can be used to realise this as both have 802.15.4 capable radio.

I recommend you refer to the product specification (found on infocenter) which includes reference layouts. You can also download the HW design files for the development kits here and here.

There are two options going forward. Up to now, we provided the nRF5 SDK for Thread and Zigbee. This is more mature, but will not get much updates going forward. The other alternative is the newer nRF Connect SDK, which is less mature but is the way to go going forward. In any case you will find a good starting point here.
