Dunno, I do know that the Oblivion gates weren't restricted to Cyrodil though
I'm pretty sure there were a few lines of dialogue mentioning Oblivion gates in Skyrim, or at least on the borders. Could be wrong of course but I can swear I remember hearing it once.
On topic: It's a possibility but not really likely, I think they'd stay closer to Alduin, once the Dragonborn was dead then they'd move into other provinces.
