That depends on what the wall is made of. For drywall I have no doubts that it can penetrate. I can put my hand through a sheet of drywall if I throw a punch and buckshot would be moving with a lot more velocity and force than my fist would. The walls of my house on the other hand were built in the 1800s and the outer walls contain nothing but hard woods. Even buckshot would have a hard time penetrating the outer walls. With my house I'd be more worried about penetration through the windows than through the walls with a shotgun.
