Default No boxes behind electrical outlets

We've discovered that part of our 30+ year old house has no boxes
behind the electrical outlets. The switches and outlets are just held
in position by the stiffness of the wires. Is there a straightforward
way to add boxes "after the fact" without tearing out wallboard?
Thanks for your suggestions.

Yes, but the other question you should be asking is:
"What *else* did they do??"

Color me suspicious...
