The hole from a nose piercing would not be large enough for you to take in a sufficient amount of air if you were to plug your nostrils. Air will flow through the piercing hole but you will still need your nostrils in order to take in enough oxygen.

How do anteater breathe?

Well, isn't that a happy little question! Anteaters breathe through their nostrils just like you and me, but they have a special adaptation in their nose that helps them avoid inhaling any pesky ants while they're munching away. It's nature's way of making sure they can enjoy their tasty meals without any interruptions. Just imagine those little anteaters peacefully breathing in and out as they go about their day, isn't that just delightful?
