Can you train to cause hypertrophy in some muscle groups but only strength increase in others at the same time?

According to this video I am linking below (and basically every online information source I could find), higher volume/lower intensity equals hypertrophy and higher intensity/lower volume equals strength without too much hypertrophy. From what I gather, in order not to gain too much mass you should also avoid going on a calorie surplus and be either on maintenance or a deficit. Can you however train some groups for hypertrophy and others just for strength at the same time (while on maintenance)? For example, if I did high volume/lower intensity arm and shoulder workouts and high intensity/lower volume abdominal workouts, would this give me bulky arms and shoulders and a trim but strong abdomen? Or you have to follow the same approach for the entire body?
