Could superstructure sit over a main-battery turret?

Saving space above a main turret introduces a damage concern.

Question

Could superstructure be built over a main-battery turret to save space?

Short answer

Theoretically, but the damage risk makes the arrangement unattractive.

Notes

Putting superstructure over a main-battery turret is treated as theoretically possible but undesirable because of the risk of damage. The short response gives no detailed mechanism or engineering solution.
