I would imagine they could. Can you post a picture?
Here are two examples.

Not ideal, but natural cavities don't have plush porches either? Maybe the senior PM minds will add to the conversation?

It may be difficult for martins to enter a crescent entrance without a porch.. it would be best to add porches.. pmca sells them I believe.. s and k manufacturing sells porches for a very good price..
Good luck.

I have a box full of basic porches from S&K. I’d send you some for the cost of shipping if they were what you needed. How many you need?
