Yes, providing it's not in a location where it's likely to be
damaged.

2. can you put it in trunking along the top of the skirting board ?

Yes.

There needs to be a fused connection unit (typically with a 5A fuse),
between the 1.5mm cable and the socket, and the socket itself must not
be a spur off a ring circuit.
