Adding Pocket Doors Where There are None

At some point the doors in my first floor had been removed or never existed. I’d like to install doors between the front hallway and kitchen, hallway to living room and living room to dining room. The LR and DR entrances are double wide and tall with the original trim molding. On the second floor there is a similar layout and one entryway does have a pocket door. During some electrical work we took a peek inside the plaster walls and saw they were hollow with no support beams and was wondering if pocke doors could go in. Has anyone done this, how much of wall demo is involved and any recommendations for a person or company that can do this. thanks.
