Yes, many different styles. For the mud ring I linked, one option is a 5" diameter blank cover plate. The hole spacing is 2-3/4".

If you don't want to see the holes, you can use this type of cover plate.

The Simple solution is make your own. Just get a round plastic one and cut the back off to the correct depth. That way you have custom depth one. Did this for a friend that dry walled and insulated a cinder block house. The boxes were n the brick. Dry Waller used mud to mount them in place and we extended the wires. Worked great. Dan
