Can Extension Mobility inherit hunt groups

I've successfully configured extension mobility which i will shorten to em. The purpose of this feature for my organization is so that my office coordinators can take their extensions with them when they go to different reception areas. The problem i have now is that the em defines their extension without hunt groups. I know I can assign hunt groups to the em but there are 8 hunt groups that the office coordinators would have and thats a flood of calls that would not be practical to receive. I was wondering if em is used, can it inherit the hunt group the phone it's logging into has? Or can it "share" the hunt? I hope what I'm asking makes sense.

In the Line group, you add the DN and not the phone. So, if the user logs into the phone using EM, the line will be active, and the call landing on the hunt can be answered by the agent who logged in with the phone using EM if this DN is part of the Line Group. If the user is not logged in, the call will not land. However, I haven’t tested this.

Thank you for this reply. This will work, but it wouldn't be practical. By this design my office coordinators would have 8 hunt groups attached to the DN and would receive too many calls when they log in with em

It’s still unclear what you are trying to achieve. If you could explain a little more, I might be able to help you.

Here is the scenario. I have 8 reception areas. all have their own hunt group. I have a user that works at a different reception area each day. If i were to apply your configuration then this one user would need to have 8 hunt groups tied to their em dn. I don't want to do that. I want to know if my user can inherit or temporarily use the hunt group at the reception area they log in to. 

As @Nithin Eluvathingal rightfully pointed out the hunt group is associated with the Directory Number, so there is nothing to inherit from the Device when your user logs in to the device at each reception area with EM. When you login to a device with EM it replaces the Directory Number on the device with the one that is associated with the UDP, ie the EM profile the user logs in with. The key item here is the word replaces.
