Is your domain above can view by public, if yes where you register your dns? if you have provider who manage the dns for you, then i think you can ask them to redirect for you.
just skip my second comment. you try the first one and see whether it works or not.
you can redirect the site from the IIS only as mentioned by tankergoblin but you also need to create A record for the site clientview.domain.com

is there any way to strictly do this through DNS so i dont have to host the site on the server any longer?

this wont pose any problems for SSL requests?
DNS is only name resolution system. it doesnt no about http thing. where u have installed SSL cert for clientview domain?

but if an SSL site tries to redirect traffic to another ssl site with a different URL, would that cause an issue at all?
no it wont cause any issues it will just do the name resolution
