Yes. It isn't desirable but can be done. However you need to understand enough about construction to know how to do it properly without causing damage to the joists and areas around them.

Can you cut holes in engineered i-beams?

Yes...Though it can take a while to drill through. I had to put my curtains up drilling timber to I RSJ's. No more then 20mm/30mm max though I doubt you will find the kit to do that. ponypomp; Guess you are referring to electrical and plumbing lines. For engineered joists, such as laminated veneer lumber or I-joists, follow the manufacturer's hole-drilling specifications exactly. Hope you go with pex for you water. Cheap,easy to work with, more freeze resistant, cleaner, less work.

How to run a cable underfloor from a wall socket?

Yes, as long as you do not run it under the floor joists. New electrical code requires that you drill a hole through the floor joists and run the wire through those holes. It cannot be hanging under the floor joists. If you see wires are already running under the floor joists then go ahead and run the wire under the joists attaching it on every other joists with a wire staple. Make sure they wire does not make contact with any metal ductwork or any other metal objects. Match the wire with what is already in the wall outlet you are jumping off of. If it is 12/2 then use 12/2, if it is 14/2 then use 14/2. Never mix wire gauges.
