I think that's the point of the blue wire shown...
To provide equal spacing around the CPU.
However, even though you can make electrical connection that way, you are moving the CPU farther away from decoupling caps on the motherboard. At gigahertz frequencies, every bit of length there matters. Doing that probably drops max overclock a hair.
