Switching from one sector in PE to another in HF

I am joining a MF PE firm this summer in one sector. Is it possible to join one of the top HFs (Lone Pine, Citadel, Whale Rock, etc.,) in a different sector? For example:

Consumer —> Healthcare (or vise versa) TMT — > Industrials (or vise versa)

Thanks!

MM HF yes, but then not sure why you'd do MFPE in the first place
