Can I install a encrypted Trisquel with the installer?

Good evening everyone,
I read sections about encryption but I did not find the response to this question below:
- with the Trisquel installer, is it possible to install an encrypted Trisquel on a free partition?
The other partitions should not be erased or encrypted by the Trisquel installer.
In case there is already a section about it, can you help me to find it?
Thank you in advance for your kind support.
Freely yours

For non-French speakers, I repeat my answer on the French language forum: it should be feasible with the netinstaller but the problem is to be able to start Trisquel and the existing system(s) after that, and the way to do might be different depending on the existing system(s) is/are.
There is https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/install-trisquel-windows-dual-boot-0 for the case on one non-free OS. For other OSes, it depends.
@Avron answer should be a lot easier to follow, but I found this way to do it too, and I've been using it ever since: https://askubuntu.com/questions/918021/encrypted-custom-install .

Thanks for the link. Are you using this to install two Trisquel (or Trisquel and Ubuntu) on the same disk?
Isn't it necessary to also add
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
in /etc/default/grub of both systems?
I install Trisquel with Mate (the official ISO) and I choice encrypt all my disk in the installation.
