Yes. You basically just shove part of the piping down past the frost line and congrats you now have year round heating via heatpump. The ground is basically a static temperature not all that far down and it solves the entire issue for really cheap during initial construction. Putting it in after the fact is quite involved though

And this isn’t even a crazy new idea. I remember houses being built with geothermal climate control back in the '90s.
They should do this in London to bleed all the heat out of the subway system and surrounding rock.
