I'm of the opinion you should be able to run the conduits straight through the wall above grade, with normal fire stopping around the outside of the conduit. There should be no particular requirement to seal the interior of the conduit, other than having an enclosed raceway system -- for example, make sure you provide caps over spare conduits.
To state that you can't penetrate fire-rated walls leads to truely bizarre implications; you could never get any power into or out of such a room. That just does not make any sense, the intent of the codes is not to disallow any utility service to a building.
Don't take no sh*# off your architects, let them know you're the boss when it comes to conduits.
