using a fixture as a path/race for a duplex

[H U G G Y]

I can't find anything that says that I should not or can't use a flourescent fixture as a path/race to get to a receptacle that is inline between two flourescent fixtures. Same conduit,go through fixture,then to receptacle,then onto next flourescent. All surface mounted pvc. Separate circuit for lights, separate circuit (same phase) for receptacles. (single phase) grd wire ran obviously because of pvc.

Yeah or ney? Thank you

Ney for sure using Roger's answer.

I was at a 5 Star Food Mart the other day and saw a ceiling fan with a cord coming out of the hole where the light kit would have been mounted. The cord went into the top of a display case for the doughnuts. I wondered about that one but didn't really know how to look it up.
