No, you can't. There's a reason it's finned- so that it sheds heat. If you shove it somewhere that is insulated it may heat up and pop the internal fuse.
You can mount it in the passenger compartment but that's not optimal. Just like gen I people who mount their coils sideways. Does it work? Yes, but it may have a shorter life.
But to answer the question, you can extend the wires if you use a quality auto wire of a proper gauge. I think 10-12 is what you should use.
