They’d be where they normally are. The motor is in the wheel so the shock absorber would be outside of the wheel just like today.

For me the question is you’d need to make sure they are perfectly in sync with the other wheels or you’ll get serious torque steer just driving normally.

Electronic controls do the hard work. They even modify power to each wheel based on diving conditions. Present SCS use the brakes.

That’s an already solved engineering problem, fortunately - synchronizing several electric motors, especially brushless motors, is a common practice these days.
