Sorry, for clarity I wanted to know if a parallel door closer track can be attached to the stop lath on the lining?

Hi I have just fitted a fire door that requires a closer on the push side. I don’t normaly like them fitted on the push side as theres greater loading on the fixings, and it is on the fire side of the door. The budget Eclipse door closer that I normally use will not work as the scissor arm rubs on the chunky stop lath on the door lining (even when using the fish plate). Im sure other fitters have a solution to this when using door linings and stop laths? Would a track type closer work? ie could I fix the door closer arm track directly onto the stop lath? This way when the door pushes open the closer and closer arm clear the stop lath. Looking forward to your solutions.
