Note, these are "overlay pavers", which require a concrete pad as a base according to installation instructions.
My guess is without concrete as a base, they will break. Even with concrete as a base, lots of reviews complain of them chipping and cracking, so replacing them is an ongoing problem.
Unless someone can correct me on the above details, I'd pass.
also as caps on concrete/cinder blocks aroumd my vegetable garden - no problems.

So long as a guest doesn't run them over, you shouldn't have issues. That's my experience anyways.
You could fill the trench with mulch. Then place the bricks on top
And..squirrels... don't underestimate them. If you don't cement them down, they will pull bricks off constantly to dig and hide their "cache" of food, often pulling bricks over it. They can move them and shift them, they're pretty strong. They can't do crap with a whole piece of wood and it's not attractive to them to move. Once they figure out they can move the bricks, you're in a world of constant putting them back in place. The coons will pull the bricks off looking for insects as well. And if you put them down and cement them to each other, when it's time to remove or move, time to do multiple hours of messy work. Too many downfalls.
I know this about squirrels when I built my firepit, they are on camera pulling bricks into the firepit because I never set them down permanently, and they cover up their goodies with bricks over the top of the ashes. So I am sure if they can do it with raised beds, they will since squirrels love to dig in raise beds.
