AutoMapper - map object from source to destionation's list of objects.

Any way I can map source object (e.g string) inside destination list of objects (e.g List<string>) using AutoMapper? simplified code example of what I want to achieve:

using AutoMapper;

var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => cfg.CreateMap<SourceModel, DestinationModel>()
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.SomeString, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.SomeString))
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.SomeOtherString, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.SomeOtherString))
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.ListOfStrings, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.ListOfStrings))); // + inside destination's ListOfStrings I also want to map source's SomeOtherString so that resulting destination's ListOfStrings is source's ListOfString + source's SomeOtherString inside the dest list 

class SourceModel
{
    public string SomeString { get; set; }
    public string SomeOtherString { get; set; }
    public List<string> ListOfStrings { get; set; }
}

class DestinationModel
{
    public SubModel SubModel { get; set; }
}

class SubModel
{
    public string SomeString { get; set; }
    public string SomeOtherString { get; set; }
    public List<string> ListOfStrings { get; set; } //this list should also include SomeOtherString value in it after mapping

}

using AutoMapper;

var config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg => cfg.CreateMap<SourceModel, DestinationModel>()
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.SomeString, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.SomeString))
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.SomeOtherString, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.SomeOtherString))
                .ForPath(dest => dest.SubModel.ListOfStrings, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.ListOfStrings))); // + inside destination's ListOfStrings I also want to map source's SomeOtherString so that resulting destination's ListOfStrings is source's ListOfString + source's SomeOtherString inside the dest list 

class SourceModel
{
    public string SomeString { get; set; }
    public string SomeOtherString { get; set; }
    public List<string> ListOfStrings { get; set; }
}

class DestinationModel
{
    public SubModel SubModel { get; set; }
}

class SubModel
{
    public string SomeString { get; set; }
    public string SomeOtherString { get; set; }
    public List<string> ListOfStrings { get; set; } //this list should also include SomeOtherString value in it after mapping

}
