I'd suggest doing that but creating 3 expressions:
[b]
[#]
[nat]
And then apply those as note expressions, and hide any true accidental
you want to place for correct playback.
This would be easier I think than trying to place brackets around
existing accidentals, although I suppose you could create a single
expression of a pair of brackets with a single space between and place
them as a unit.
It might be better to create them as articulations, which can be more
easily adjusted for automatically in music spacing. You would have to
create them as a shape, which might be better anyway because you could
adjust the kerning between the items more easily as a shape expression
than as a text expression.
