I am wanting to take my nest cameras from my old house to my new house. I am not able to access the wire that goes through the brick that plugs on the inside. is there a way to just cut the wire and replace the wire later later? Can the camera be taken apart and the wire taken off from the outside?

Yes
All of my cameras inside and out are hardwired into my home but you may want an electrician to do it if you’re not familiar with your homes electrical wiring and fuse panel.
This post explains it really well.

I get the access challenge through a brick wall. The cables for all three of our 1st gen Google Nest Outdoor Cameras go through our garage walls and so we have access to the wires inside the detached garage.
I'm pretty sure the cameras can't be taken apart (none of Google Nest's cameras are designed to be user-serviceable), and even if you could, Google Nest no longer sells replacement cables for the 1st gen Google Nest Outdoor Cameras, and the replacements (when they were still available), only went from the adapter to the wall outlet.
