Not a good platform since it will crack the first time it gets frost in it.
Throw in a few pavers, sure, but don't make patterns.
2 in concrete - throw in a few pavers - dump in a couple of bags of concrete dump in some more pavers (broken but clean is best) vibrate them in mesh and more concrete more pavers and vibrate or at least jiggle it so that the pavers settle.
Use the pavers as fill not structure.
I threw a load of bricks into mine - saved me about three bags of concrete
