Based on your statement, could I instead use the fixture's wiring for

NO. Fixture wiring is allowed only inside the fixture canopy and the junction

It is not 100% clear to me what the OP is trying to do,
but although a little ugly, he might be able to use
Panduit/Wiremold like stuff to achieve his goals.
