Yes, you can just use CSS to set the dimensions of the canvas and set maintainAspectRatio to false in the options, for the ticks you can use the tick callback:

const labels = ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"];

const options = {
  type: 'line',
  data: {
    labels,
    datasets: [{
      label: '# of Votes',
      data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
      borderColor: 'red',
      backgroundColor: 'pink'
    }]
  },
  options: {
    maintainAspectRatio: false,
    scales: {
      yAxes: [{
        ticks: {
          callback: (val) => (`${val}K`)
        }
      }]
    }
  }
}

const ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);
canvas {
  max-height: 180px;
  max-width: 320px;
}
<body>
  <canvas id="chartJSContainer" width="600" height="400"></canvas>
  <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.9.4/Chart.js"></script>
</body>

Okay it turns out its as simple as wrapping the chart with a container and set height of that container as needed
