You cando it either way. Since you are planning to put stone on the front, why not just angle open the block on the front, and back fill with a smooth surface of concrete or mortar, when installing the facade.

Or, you could just build using stone blocks, say ones about 4 x 4 , and live with the openings. If you have to have tight closed stones, use a stone cutter and motar. Stone isn't that expensive, and might be cheaper than the stone facade over concrete block.
