It won't bleed the EBCM , but after your flush, go out and make some stops hard enough to activate the anti skid. That will flush some of the new fluid through the ECBM. After that if the master cylinder fluid gets cloudy, syringe it out and replace.
For you, a good practice would be to syringe out and replace the master cylinder fluid every oil change or once a year whichever comes first. At the same time do that to the power steering fluid reservoir with full synthetic PS fluid like Red Line. Use a different syringe for PS fluid-

While it hasn't happened to me with the Corvette, I have had multiple other vehicles where not changing the brake fluid has resulted in corroded master cylinder bores, with the associated internal leakage, and at least one seized master cylinder -- the seized master cylinder occurred immediately after a dealer mechanic strenuously suggested a brake flush, and I declined.
