Volcanoes aren't hollow tubes with magma at the bottom. They either have a plug of solidified lava above the magma chamber, or are actively releasing magma upwards. Either way, you would still have to dig through rock and magma.

Do you mean extinct volcanoes? Because we would be digging into magma if we started working on the dormant ones.
