“I have a set of bi-wire speaker cables that I need to put into a loudspeaker that isn't bi-wireable. The speaker ends of the cable are bare wire. Would these work as a sort of splitter to attach both bare wires to? If not, what might be the best solution?”

If you have speaker wire with four strands you can braid them into pairs. Your bi-wire cable should have four colors of wire, at each end just pick two of the colors and braid the bare wire together, then do the same at the other end and repeat with the other two colors. Then take this connector and put it on the end of the braided wire and there you go you have two conductor speaker cable. Here is a video I found that talks about this, in fact, that is why I bought these connectors because I used them on this exact wire. https://youtu.be/XuqXoNAnXLU

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, to an extent. I have the same situation. It depends on the Guage of your wire. One can probably use up to two 12 Guage wires. Just know that it's highly likely you're wire shielding/cover won't fit into plastic ends of the plug housing.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, if I understand you correctly I believe you need a splicer to connect both wires together.
