Should I spread in spring or fall? 

For farmers that are ahead of the game, or have the opportunity, spreading manure in the fall ensures a “less hectic” spring (like that’s a thing).

You can absolutely use a pelleted chicken manure on your organic ground. Some manure pellets may be OMRI approved, some may not.
