Good day.

I dont know 100% of unity features, but with all i know, i it is not possible to do it in a continous way. I mean, you can do it in a discrete way, create a loooot of tiny cubes, creating a volume and delete the cubes that collide with some other object (the drill).

But as Unity allow people to create tools, pluggins, addons, maybe somebody created something like this in a continous way.

But as I said, is possible with a large amount of cubes creating a big cube (for example 5000x5000x5000) and with a Collider detect wich of these cubes are inside the colider and delete them.

Bye!
