Definitely. If you leave reasonable length tails - not the 'oh my gawd I can't fit tiles behind' type that some pro sparks are so keen on, there's no chance of a short. I also always use deep (35mm) boxes for the same reason.
My pet hate? Plaster depth boxes for light switches. For a start they're always deeper than any plaster on brick I've come across. And of course most decent dimmers won't fit them when you come to change the switch for one.

It's always been acceptable to do so in Scotland if one has a wee refreshment taken.
Scots are getting more tolerant towards sobriety.
