Water pipes yes you can providing you take precautions to prevent corrosion and accidental damage. Gas pipes well leave that to a CORGI gasman who will know exactley how to SAFELY run a gas pipe discreetly out of sight. There are a lot of rules and regs to adhere to.

It is possible, but as said above, with caution.
