Default Running wires from the attic to the basement

A few days ago I posted a message about running wires through a cold air
return. Here's more info about the problem. I have some exterior lights on
the second story of my house that I want to install. I need to run power to
the lights and of course add a switch. If I call an electrician, would
he/she be able to run wire down to the basement to the panel and then
install a switch on the first floor? Or, would they tap into a hot wire in
the attic and install a switch on the second floor?
