Is it legit for a wizard to make two perception checks, one representing him and one representing his familiar? Further if the wizard's fails but the familiar's succeeds, is it legit for the familiar to warn the wizard something is there using empathic link?
Yup, that's pretty much how it works. The familiar is a second set of eyes, unless it's specifically stated to be hidden away or off scouting.

A familiar is all about the action economy and doubling of checks. Well and a few other things, scouting and caltrop shenanigans are both good.
Failed to figure out what that magic item is? See if Sonic your Hedgehog familiar has any idea.
But yeah, it's totally legit. Though emphatic link is more emotional in nature so you wouldn't know a whole lot beside the familiar being scared/afraid/angry/happy (succubus fun?) etc.
