Better do not connect in such a way for cove lighting, it will create 'shadow'.

It wont have shadow effect, my house L box is with T5 all connect via cable and place close together no overlapping. No problem.

My case can see darken out area if not arrange them over lapping. Maybe my ceiling drop is higher.
