Normally yes however I have seen rust on the metal brackets that hold the brake hose to the strut put a small amount of pressure on the line causing this kind of issues. Granted it’s only happened maybe 2 or 3 times in the last however many years. However I didn’t want to suggest just throwing a part at the car. However if the brake fluid is flowing freely when he pulls the bleeder off the caliper then that rules out the hose.
