Lateraling from Product to Coverage at Other Bank

The bank I'll be joining FT to lumps in their product and coverage groups under the IBD, but the spots for coverage groups are extremely competitive. I know that I definitely do not want to be placed into a product group as I interned in one and did not enjoy it.

As a worst case scenario, if I'm placed into a product group again, is there any chance that I would be able to lateral to a coverage group at a different bank during my analyst years?

Appreciate any insight that anyone might have.
