Yes....but then there is added cost to do embedment the right way.
When embedded installs on new construction are requested, I would always pre-install the insulated lines in PVC pipes way before the wall plaster is applied. This will prevent unsightly old-new plaster joint cracks. Chipping thru existing painted walls to embed new lines will require masonry & paint work. Both will need lengthy cure time if you want top notch results. To prevent the said old-new plaster cracks that are bound to show months after, I'd clad the entire wall w/ cemboard for permanent seamlessness. All that will be added work & cost for the owner.
With external routing, the addition for the cover is minimal....& when trouble comes, it'll be a big relief for everyone.[emoji4]
