this is how I understand, hope it halp.

In term of extend and relocate your light fixture. There is no problem if you do that. However, it will not pass the safety inspection. (If you called for one and they see it). And/or it may affecting the house insurance coverage if some bad thing happen that cause by the wiring connection.
And for safety reason, if using type and hide it in the wood is not safe, electrical type is only a thin layer of plastic or rubber, after long period of time it will peel away from the copper wire and contacting the 2x4 wood which have certain amount of moisture. It may cause a “electrical current leakage” which become a short curcuit, the wire will be over heated, it is a fire hazard. My word to you, finish it as professionals will do., the box is $2 or less

    加拿大室内电线的接口是不是都要放在铁盒子里?
    比如说家里装修改造,照明灯的开关要移位,但电线太短,于是想再接一根,那这个新旧电线接口的部位,是否一定要放入一个铁盒子里?如果没有余地可以放铁盒子的话,接头的地方用胶布包好放进木方里的一个小洞里有什么问题?
