Let's say I setup some subdomains and then point them to my home server via Cloudflare tunnel.

If I use one of those subdomains from my personal PC on the same network as my home server, to watch a movie for example, is all of that traffic going out to the internet and then back? Or does all the traffic stay internal once the connection has been made?

I get how that could work, but what services actually do that? Homeassistant can, but that needs to be setup explicitly for it to work.

Plex is a good example that does just that (not on my rec list but a good example) along with many business grade IPTV and media streaming products (think digital signage).

I'd really love to rework JF to do it, but structurally it wouldn't work, you'd need a management service in front of it.
