If Vitiate and Exar Kun used the same technique to make themselves immortal, does that mean Wall of Light would seal off Vitiate as well?
Revan found some records of Vitiate's grand ritual on Medriaas and he came after Exar Kun.
The Wall of Light had been in effect in Yavin 4, keeping Exar Kun trapped there. However, it didn't had any effect on Vitiate.

They did based on the Dashade quest we got.
The Wall of Light in TotJ was targeted at Exar Kun, of course it would not be able to shackle Vitiate.

Grieving for his brother and severed from the Force, the fallen Jedi Ulic Qel-Droma finally returned to the light. He joined the Republic forces and led them to Yavin Four, stronghold of the Dark Lord Exar Kun. The Republic fleet bombarded the moon’s surface, leveling Exar Kun’s temples and setting the jungles aflame. But Exar Kun had sensed the approach of the Republic forces and laid preparations. Summoning his loyal Massassi warriors, he performed a dreadful ritual that drained them of their life essence. Exar Kun became a spirit of pure darkness. The Jedi in the fleet sensed Exar Kun’s actions. Led by Nomi, they created a "wall of light" through the Force. Exar Kun found himself trapped within the temples of Yavin Four for eternity, screaming with rage and helpless to escape.
From (Galactic History 61: The Brotherhood is Broken)
The key word is temples. The events of Shadow of Revan took place in one of these temples.

Exar Kun got his own temples and it only works on him. Just like we go into the temples but we don't get shackled there.
The Jedi Order subjected the entire planet to Wall of Light, causing massive firestorms on its surface.
If we assume that the effectiveness of Wall of Light diminished with passage of time, then Exar Kun should manage to escape at some point. However, this does not happens and/or he is terribly weakened. It also does not makes sense to assume that Wall of Light confined itself to Exar Kun's temple exclusively among all others; he have a single Temple dedicated for him there.
We get the opportunity to interact with the spirit of Exar Kun there but he is not part of the story.
Point is that Wall of Light likely have limitations. If it could stop Vitiate, the Jedi Order would have used it against him. It's not like that the Jedi Order forgot the technique or something.

Look at the scene, the wall of light skill was directed at Exar Kun. In the original TotJ, the power was focused on the temple as well.
They did it to cleanse darkness and seal off Exar Kun. Not to seal off the entire planet with the power, otherwise in KOTOR and SWTOR, those characters would not even be able to step on Yavin, especially the Sith.
Because the entire Jedi Order could not find a chance to get to him and cast it, since he has an empire behind him?
