I spoke to my contact at Timbren and they stated that they designed and tested their Timbren Axle-Less systems like the part # A20RS440 with the intention of it being a trailing arm suspension.
Turning it around would change some of the dynamics but it could be possible that it could still work although not recommended. They advised against it since it has never been tested.
