I do not think that they would damage your blender. My grinder looks just like a blender except that the blades are not so far down in a container.

If I had to try to use beans and didn't have my grinder, I would use the blender to grind them all the way. Made sure that the beans have not been stored in the refrigerator before you grind them....I keep mine in the fridge and there is a dampness to them that makes the ground beans stick all over the grinder. It is easy to scrape out, but that would not be the case in a blender. If the powdered grounds stick, you might have to remove the bottom of the blender container to remove some of it.

Good luck. I don't know how well it would work, but that is my bet.
