But this isn't a full bridge, it's a half-bridge with two transistors in parallel.
Provided that the top pair is on when the bottom pair is off, and there is sufficient dead-time to allow the IGBTs to turn off, it will work.

NO, you will blow the transistors as they will turn on together and short out the supply.

You need to cross connect the Bases so that opposite transistors conduct, So top Left and Bottom Right bases , top Right and bottom Left.

Top MOSFETs and bottom MOSFETs must never be on at the same time.
There must be a short time when no MOSFETs are on.
Bottom MOSFETs are driven by a driver sitting on (-).
Top MOSFETs is driven by a signal that is not related to (-) but by (AC)

You need to put the Coil/Transformer between the transistors Collectors , that way it will pulse across the supply.
That arrangement (post #1) with the coil connected by a capacitor is a common way of doing things. The coil will see ±half the supply voltage and that may be what the design expects.

When the top signal is high the bottom must be low and vice versa.

Ok thanks

Thanks
it is already made panel the driver is already there, I just want to change the the burnt transistors and increase the efficiency that's all.
