hydraulics loss

As I understood from a previous thread the DHL incident in iraq left the plane with no hydraulics due to a missle hit near the tip of the wing(the eileron,I think).
I'm wondering,would it be possible to have such a failure to lose all the hydaulic liquid? For ex on the 737 all systems power the flight controls.
Can it be possible to have a leaq ,for ex at the eileron,through which to lose the liquid from all hyd systems? Just at the eileron activating system,after the selecting valve.
I know about the DC10 ,but it was somehow different case.
Brgds Alex
