Yes. If they are single wires they need to be in a conduit.
Conduit fitting is used on metal pipes that house electrical wires. These fittings are not only to connect the various pieces together, but to keep a relatively water tight seal to the wires.
You can pull 10 #3 gauge wires in a 2 1/2" conduit.
Cleat wiring is exposed while in conduit wiring the wires are well protected inside tubes/pipes.
