My former airline used specially designed chocks for full power engine runs. Aircraft tend to squirm around on the tyres with full thrust/brakes applied. I wouldn't even rely on normal wooden/plastic chocks, let alone brakes. Anecdotal, but I've even heard of a 747 nose moving 6 feet sideways after an engine stall.
