I've always set up bar ends that way, no problem. In the 70's before plastic lined housing and teflon coated cables the Suntour barcons were installed with bare ss wire housing(no covering) with greased zinc coated derailleur wire. I've installed bar cons with the regular stock derailleur housing routed as shown in the picture. Just make sure there's enough slack so that when the bars are turned it doesn't pull.
