There certainly used to be, probably still is available from problem solvers.

On my 1993 rockhopper, I did this conversion, and had issues with the rear cable stop. I was never satisfied with the clamp-on stop that I ended up using; it moved too easily on the top tube, and looked ugly. Full-length housing might be the way to go in this scenario, although I haven't tried it.
