Even with the choke and kill lines you are only circulating at the well head. I think you still run into the fundamental problem which is that you cannot generate enough hydrostatic head to overcome the well pressure. The only way I could see a "top kill" procedure working is if they could seal off the annulus temporarily and bull head.
