They will grow out regardless of whether the root ball is broken up, unless the new substrate is radically different from the old one.

I've always read about unwinding (or even cutting) shrubs and perennial's roots when they do that, that they will continue to grow 'round and 'round otherwise, so I wasn't sure if that was also a concern with succulents.
