Can a new steel brake line between the master cylinder and the right front brake - the really long brake line in the image below - be installed with the engine in place, and if so, any tips? Thanks FABO Nation.

Yes. I installed that line on a '72 340 Duster with the engine in place. My car has standard brakes, so no booster in the way.
That line goes down to the distribution block. If I remember correctly, (old guy memory) just disconnected any electrical wires in the way and maybe the cable to the starter.
Had to bend a little and bend back in spots but it can be done.
