I really don't think so and here is why:



The diagram shows what I cut off, and basically the coolant will flow the same route except it will go from inlet (water pump) through the block, then head, thermostat and radiator, and to the turbo. That's it. I know what you mean, and I am slightly concerned about it, but them FD nerds are all blocking this stuff off, so I am pretty confident it'll be fine, otherwise I will be buying a VVTi head when I replace the headgasket on it!
