It shouldn’t be an issue. As long as no cables or pipes are chased in the wall where you are planning on drilling through it shouldn’t be an issue

Plumbers please isolate the external tap with a plastic section. Don’t copper it all the way or you create a dangerous situation under fault conditions. Seen one fatality due to this.
