You might first check that the nozzle isn't magnetic or or might jump onto the nozzle!

I think you might find it is best to recess the magnets instead of embedding them. However, neither brass or aluminum is magnetic so there shouldn't be an issue if you slip a magnet in during a print. Just make sure to pause before the hole gets covered up and insert your magnet.
