So I purchased a clone in a 5 inch pot of living soil. I grow in coco and wondering if I can wash the roots of the soil and transplant into coco. Don't want to lose the plant it was costly.

I wouldn't do that much. Just transplant and start your feed program.
 
So there should'nt be a problem with a 5 inch pot of soil planted into coco, will it cause root problem with the wet and dry cycles. Soil holding water much better than coco.
No way. Your talking about a solo cup sized pot that its currently in? Right? Nope! What size pot are you going to finish in?
 
It is in a 5 inch square pot.

Am thinking if I cannot wash, then go ahead and grow in this pot and take clones from the mother and put in coco.
 
I would caution you on this in pure* coco. Some dryback during lights off, ok. But you should do your best to keep your coco hydrated. Be sure to water to runoff, so you don't get any EC/PH issues.
I have been running coco for years now, I have an automated irrigation system that allows me to water as many times, up to 8 times per light cycle.

Orbit 8 port manifold, only use 6 with the current setup.

Rainbird emitters, good full pot coverage.

Setup, modified Ebb and Flow system, only using the drain pots, with a riser. Can see the risers in the pots

Drain pots with the fabric bags of coco/perlite.

The drain pots are connected and outside of the tent I have the collection pot, which transfer the drain liquids to a waste barrel.
