VPN peers are not required to be visible from VPN itself. You can build a bridge that will take packet from (bridging) interface 0 onmachine A, encapsulate and encrypt it, send it via interface 1 to machine B's interface 1, that will decrypt it and send out via interface 0 on machine B,and vice versa.
Yes - but A1 and B1 have visible IP interfaces to the rest of the world between them - thus A and B are no longer stealth firewalls by definition? At least if using standard VPN like IPsec?
As for A0 and B0, yes, that part was understood. Albeit I prefer "proper" (i.e. normal) routing over bridging. Makes debugging network connections easier IMHO.
